After sitting as a healthy scratch for the first four games of the series, Gustafsson is expected to replace Brett Kulak in the lineup for Game 5. Gustafsson has collected two assists while plating 13:23 ATOI in five games with the Canadiens.
Berggren was a second-round pick (No.33 overall pick) in 2018 and had a terrific 2021 season in the SHL. The 20-year-old led Skelleftea AIK with 45 points (12G / 33A) in 49 games and is set to come to North America in 2022.
Tarasenko missed eight of the final nine games of the regular seasons but will play in Game 1 on Monday. His return will provide a big boost for a team that will be without David Perron, who is in COVID-19 protocol. Tarasenko scored four goals with 10 assists (14 points) in 24 games this season.
Copp was missing from Thursday's practice and will be held out of the season finale on Friday. With Copp out tomorrow, Dominic Toninato will move up to the third line but expect Copp to reclaim that role in Game 1 vs. the Oilers.
Holl was originally considered questionable for Wednesday's game but reportedly responded well after Tuesday's practice and should be in the lineup in Ottawa. Holl has had a nice season as a top-4 defenseman, scoring two goals with 18 assists in 53 games.
