Brian Boyle News

Boyle left Sunday’s game with an undisclosed injury and did not return.

Head coach John Hynes did not have an update on Boyle’s status postgame, so the fourth line centre should be considered questionable for Tuesday’s game in Philadelphia. Monitor Boyle’s status over the next 24 hours.
