Jacob Bryson was added to the COVID-19 protocol list this morning, so he'll suit up for his second straight game on Wednesday. Fitzgerald had one assist and two shots on goal in 16:42 TOI in Pittsburgh on December 17th.
The COVID-19 protocol list continues to grow in Boston, as Blidh was one of three players added on Thursday morning. Blidh joins Trent Frederic, Jeremy Swayman, Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand.
Shesterkin had to leave Friday's game after suffering a lower-body injury in the third period. Shesterkin did not put any weight on his leg as he was leaving the ice but head coach Gerard Gallant said it's a minor lower-body injury and not as bad as it looked. Look for Alexandar Georgiev to start Saturday.
Borgen was a shot-blocking machine in Buffalo on Monday, so it's not surprising that he picked up a lower-body injury. Jeremy Lauzon will replace Borgen on Wednesday.
