Krejci continues to be hampered by a sore hip and will now miss his third of the Bruins last four games. The 28-year-old centre has 10 points (3G / 7A) in 10 games despite being bothered by hip pain, but it has become too much to play through. He is listed as day-to-day.
This is the fourth straight day that Krejci has not been on the ice. He returned to the lineup last Thursday after a two-game absence, but it looks like he will be out of the lineup once again. If he is out, expect Chris Kelly to move back up into the top-6.
Krejci missed the last two games with hip pain but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Oilers. He will skate between Milan Lucic and Seth Griffth. With Krejci returning, Simon Gagne will take a seat.
Krejci participated in the Bruins optional morning skate today after miss the last two games with a sore hip. Being on the ice for warmups is a good sign that he will return tonight, but we await confirmation.
Rask stopped 18 of 19 shots in a 2-1 victory over the Panthers on Tuesday. He has won four of his last five starts, while registering a 2.19 GAA and .930 SV% over that span. He is as good as they come and he is a must-start tonight vs. the visiting Oilers. Rask is 4-2-0 at home this season.

Krejci was on the ice for the Bruins’ optional morning skate and might take warmups tonight. He has missed the last two games, but it would make more sense if they sit him out one more game and let him rest over the weekend before they play New Jersey on Monday. Monitor his status during pre-game warmups.
Krejci missed his second game in a row last night and his absence this morning makes him doubtful for a return on Thursday vs. Edmonton. While he remains out, Chris Kelly will continue to centre Milan Lucic and Seth Griffin.
Krejci will miss his second straight game with lingering pain in the same hip that caused him to miss three games at the start of the season. Head coach Claude Julien said that he does not think the injury is serious and expects to have Krejci back in the lineup soon.
Rask stopped 27 of 29 shots in the Bruins 4-2 win over the Senators on Saturday. October was not Rask's best month, but he has turned things around as of late, winning three of his last four starts with a 2.52 GAA and .928 SV%. He is a must-start tonight with the Panthers in Beantown.
Krejci was not at practice on Monday either so it looks like he will miss his second straight game with lingering hip pain. Chris Kelly will centre Milan Lucic and Seth Griffith with Krejci out. Head coach Claude Julien called him day-to-day on Monday.
Krejci is reportedly still dealing with the hip injury that caused him to miss the first three games of the season. He was playing through the pain, but he grew too be too painful to play through. Hip pain can be extremely painful, so consider Krejci doubtful for Tuesday.
Krejci was a late scratch from Saturday's game vs. the Senators and his absence at Monday's practice puts his status for Tuesday in question. Chris Kelly remained between Milan Lucic and Seth Griffith this morning, so expect that line to stay together if Krejci is unavailable on Tuesday. The Bruins' pivot has nine points (3G / 6A) in nine games this season.
Krejci missed practice on Friday, but head coach Claude Julien said that he would be in the lineup an hour prior to puck-drop. He took the ice for warmups, but was a late scratch, which means Matt Fraser will play.
Rask gave up four goals on 42 shots in the Bruins loss to the Wild on Tuesday. Rask is off to a 4-4-0 start to the season and will be under more pressure than normal with Zdeno Chara and Torey Krug both out of the lineup. However, he remains an elite fantasy option and should be in your lineup vs. Ottawa.
Rask turned aside 32 of 33 shots in the Bruins 4-1 win over the Maple Leafs on Saturday. After facing an average of just 22 shots in his first four starts and posting an .852 SV%, Rask has faced 33.5 shots per game in his last two games and posted a .940 SV%. Maybe the heavy workload helps him? Hopefully so because that trend should continue with Zdeno Chara out of the lineup.

Rask allowed three goals on 34 shots in a win over the Sharks on Tuesday. He sat on Wednesday, so it is no surprise to see him back between the pipes tonight vs. the Leafs. It has been a rough start to the year for Rask, but he is a must-start regardless.
Tonight will mark Rask's first start since last Thursday when he was yanked in the third vs. Montreal after allowed five goals on 23 shots. It has not been an ideal start to the season for Rask or the Bruins and things will not be easy on them tonight with the San Jose Sharks in town. That said, Rask is elite and does not belong on your bench.
