Monahan has had an extremely disappointing season, scoring just 10 goals with 18 assists (28 points) in 50 games. Playing through a hip injury could help explain some of his inconsistencies throughout the season. The final four games are completely meaningless, so shutting him down now ensures he'll be ready for the start of the 2022 season.

Coyle will be ready for the playoffs but is expected to miss the final two games of the season. With Coyle out, the Bruins will likely get a look at Ondrej Kase, who has missed almost all of 2021.

Coyle is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, so look for Karson Kuhlman to replace him in the lineup. Coyle should be considered questionable for Saturday's rematch vs. the Rangers.

Jaros has been in the lineup for three straight games but will be replaced by Nicolas Meloche on Wednesday.

Fabbro has been out since April 6th but could be back in the lineup Wednesday in Columbus. Fabbro scored two goals and nine assists (11 points) in 38 games this season. He will likely replace Alexandre Carrier if he can play.

Garland has missed the last six games with a lower-body injury but is listed as a game-time decision for Monday's game vs. the Kings. Prior to getting hurt, Garland was held goalless in his previous 10 games.
