Gustafsson replaced Shea Weber (upper-body) in the lineup on Friday but Brett Kulak will draw back in to replace Gustafsson on Saturday. Gustafsson has picked up two assists in four games since joining Montreal.



Smith was absent from the Bruins' morning skate and will be a game-time decision on Thursday. If Smith can't play, look for Jake DeBrusk to draw into the lineup and replace him on the second line with David Krejci and Taylor Hall.











Larkin suffered an upper-body injury late in Tuesday's game in Dallas and will miss the final seven games of the regular season. Larkin finishes the season with a disappointing 24 points (9G / 15A) in 44 games.


Mrazek was originally scheduled to start Thursday against the Panthers but is dealing with a lower-body injury so Alex Nedeljkovic will start for the second straight game.


Larkin was hurt late in Tuesday's loss in Dallas and will not be available for Thursday's rematch in Detroit. The Red Wings' captain will undergo further evaluation and a more detailed injury report will likely be revealed in the coming days. Expect Evgeny Svechnikov to draw back into the lineup to replace Larkin.
