Kurashev was a fourth-round pick (No.120) in 2018 and is in his third year in the QMJHL. The 19-year-old centre will remain in Quebec (QMJHL), where he leads the team in goals (28), assists (34) and points (62).

Khudobin allowed three goals on 40 shots in the Stars win in Los Angeles on February 28th. Ben Bishop started the last three games but Khudobin gets the nod vs. Chicago and comes in on a three game winning streak—stopping 114 of the 122 shots (.934 SV%) that he has faced.

Brossoit allowed one goal on two shots after replacing Connor Hellebuyck after he was cut by a Nikita Kucherov shot on Tuesday. Brossoit is not playing his best hockey as of late but has gone 5-5-0 with a 2.82 GAA and .909 SV% on the road and stopped 42 of 43 shots in a win over the Hurricanes in their first meeting of the season.

Martinez has missed the last eight games but was back on the ice for Monday’s practice and has a chance to play on Tuesday. Martinez has four goals and 11 assists (15 points) in 43 games this season.





Seney was in the lineup for the last two games but will be replaced by Kurtis Gabriel on Thursday.

Donato was a highly touted prospect coming out of Harvard University. The 22-year-old was picked in the second-round (No.56 overall) in 2014 and dazzled Bruins fans in a 12-game stint after turning pro late last season. However, Donato struggled to find his way this season, scoring just six goals with three assists (nine points) in 34 games. Since then he has been in the AHL, where he has 12 points (7G / 5A) in 18 games with Providence but could replace Coyle on the big-club as the Wild continue to push for a playoff berth.


Brodie was a late-scratch vs. the Coyotes on Monday but is expected to play Wednesday vs. the Islanders. Brodie has been held pointless for the last four games but has 29 points (7G / 22A) in 58 games this season.


There is no word on when Martinez suffered the injury but is expected to miss at least a week with an upper-body issue. The Kings have recalled Matt Roy from Ontario (AHL) and he will replace Martinez on Saturday.

Khudobin allowed five goals on 21 shots in the Stars loss in Tampa Bay on Thursday. Khudobin has gone 2-2-1 with a 2.65 GAA and .922 SV% in five February starts. With Ben Bishop still out, Khudobin will make his 25th start of the season on Saturday. The 32-year-old has gone 5-8-3 with a 2.66 GAA and .921 SV% on the road this year.
