Zadorov will not travel to Dallas for Thursday’s game after suffering an upper-body injury on Tuesday. Ryan Graves will replace him on the Colorado blueline.

Cehlarik has missed the last two games but will be back in the Bruins lineup on Saturday. Cehlarik, who has four goals and two assists in 13 games, will skate on the Bruins’ new-look third line with Charlie Coyle and David Backes.
Zacha will miss his fourth straight game with an upper-body injury and it doesn’t appear like there has been any significant progress towards returning to the lineup.
Cehlarik will miss his second straight game with a lower-body injury but head coach Bruce Cassidy said that he is “close” to a return. Cehlarik should be back for Saturday’s game in St. Louis.
