Grzelcyk was hurt vs. the Hurricanes on Thursday and will not play on Saturday. Grzelcyk was on the ice for Friday's practice, which suggests he's close and likely won't miss an extended period of time.


Teravainen was on the ice for the morning skate but remains a game-time decision in Boston. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said he expects Teravainen to play but it's not 100 percent.


Teravainen is still not ready to go for Tuesday's game in Ottawa, missing his fourth consecutive game due to a lower-body injury. While Teravainen has been sidelined, Jordan Martinook has been skating on the Hurricanes' top line.

Foligno missed four games with an upper-body injury but will play Tuesday vs. the Penguins. Folgino will sub back into the lineup on the fourth line, replacing Anton Blidh.

Foligno skated on the fourth line in Monday's practice session and may be back in the lineup on Tuesday. Foligno has picked ups just one goal and six assists (seven points) in 26 games this season.


The Hurricanes were hoping that the All-Star break would help Teravainen's lower-body injury but he remains questionable for Monday's game in Toronto. With Jesperi Kotkaniemi landing in COVID-19 protocol on Sunday, the Hurricanes may have to call someone up or dress seven defensemen if Teravainen can't play.




Grzelcyk has missed the last two games but will be a game-time decision in Arizona. If Grzelcyk plays, expect him to skate on the top pairing with Charlie McAvoy and the second power-play unit.
