Foligno missed the final six games of the regular season, but was on the ice for Monday’s practice and is expected to be in for Game 1 against the Capitals. Foligno, who finished the season with 15 goals and 18 assists (33 points) in 72 games, will centre a line with Oliver Bjorkstrand and Josh Anderson on his wings.

Khudobin allowed four goals on 32 shots in the Bruins shootout loss in Winnipeg on Tuesday. It has been a good year for the Bruins backup, but he comes into Sunday having lost four in a row (0-2-2) while allowing a combined 12 goals on 119 shots (.899 SV%). The matchup isn’t great but Khudobin has been good on the road—9-4-4 with a 2.39 GAA and .920 SV%.

Foligno finished Saturday’s game against the Blues, so there’s no word on when the Blue Jackets’ captain sustained the injury. The timing could not be worse for Foligno, as Columbus has been red-hot and this injury could force him to miss the start of the playoffs. He has picked up one goal and five assists (six points) in his last seven games.

Al Montoya is not available to backup Cam Talbot vs. the Ducks on Sunday, so Brossoit comes up to handle that duty.

Khudobin allowed three goals on 28 shots in the Bruins loss in Florida last Thursday. He has lost his last two while allowing six goals on 67 shots (.911 SV%). Tonight he faces a Blues team without Vladimir Tarasenko. Khudobin is 9-4-2 with a 2.33 GAA and .924 SV% on the road this season.

Donato, 21, just wrapped up his third year at Harvard University where he collected 26 goals and 17 assists (43 points) in just 29 games. The Bruins are really banged up, so Donato could be thrust into a key role right from the get-go. The Boston native was a second round pick (No. 56 overall) in 2014.

Weber has been out since mid-December and his season officially ended on Tuesday as he underwent surgery to repair tendons in his left foot. Weber’s six-month timetable should allow him to join the Canadiens for training camp next season, as long as his rehab goes well.

Toninato was a healthy scratch on Saturday but will replace Nail Yakupov in the lineup on Tuesday. Toninato has brought no offence to the Avalanche, having picked up one assist in 30 games this season.

Khudobin allowed five goals on 35 shots in the Bruins win over the Red Wings on Tuesday. After sitting for two in a row, Khudobin will get back in net this afternoon in Chicago looking for his third consecutive win. Khudobin has gone 9-2-2 with a 2.22 GAA and .926 SV% on the road so far this season.

Khudobin allowed one goal on 28 shots in the Bruins overtime win over the Canadiens on Saturday. Khudobin started because Tuukka Rask is dealing with a minor injury, but it’s still lingering so Khudobin will start again tonight. The 31-year-old has gone 5-2-2 with a 2.53 GAA and .913 SV% on home ice this season.
