Boston Bruins News

The Bruins have recalled Peter Cehlarik from Providence (AHL) on an emergency basis.

The Bruins lost both David Backes and Anders Bjork in Tuesday’s game vs. the Ducks, so Cehlarik comes up to fill their void at forward. It sounds like Bjork will be out longer than Backes so look for Cehlarik, who has 13 points (6G / 7A) in 17 games with Providence, to replace him on Thursday.

With Anton Khudobin starting on Tuesday, Rask will start the next two games. He has gone 12-4-2 with a 1.99 GAA and .928 SV% at the TD Garden this year.

Korpisalo will start Thursday vs. the Stars.

Korpisalo allowed five goals on 35 shots in the Blue Jackets loss to the Lightning in his last NHL start (Dec. 31st). Korpisalo has been getting playing time in the AHL recently and will start the Blue Jackets' first game out of their bye week tonight. He started the first game after their break last year and pitched a shutout in a 7-0 win over the Islanders.

Rask is projected to start Wednesday vs. the Canadiens.

Rask allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Bruins shootout win in Montreal last Saturday. Anton Khudobin got the nod on Sunday, so they’ll go right back to Rask tonight vs. the Canadiens. Rask continues to play great and tonight he faces a Montreal team that has lost seven of their last nine (2-5-2).

Arvidsson had to be helped off of the ice at practice; unable to put any weight on his leg.

Arvidsson reportedly had to be helped off of the ice this afternoon, which doesn’t bode well for his availability for Tuesday’s game vs. the Golden Knights. Arvidsson will likely be evaluated this afternoon and the Predators will likely release a timetable prior to tomorrow’s game if he is going to miss any time.
