Stecher will miss his third straight game on Tuesday and could miss an extended period of time. There's no indication of what is ailing Stecher but expect an update after he sees a specialist.




Domi was added to the COVID-19 protocol list on Monday and is not expected to be available for Wednesday's game in Colorado. Like when he missed time with a rib injury, look for Yegor Chinakhov to replace him in the lineup.

Pezzetta was a sixth-round pick of the Canadiens in 2016. He has played 115 AHL games since then and could make his NHL debut this week after replacing Cole Caufield on the NHL roster. Pezzetta has three goals and three assists (six points) in eight games with Laval this season.

Domi has missed the last four games but will replace Yegor Chinakhov in the lineup on Friday. Domi will skate on the third line and second PP unit in New York.


Rielly was set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season but the extension now carries him through the 2029-30 NHL season. It's been a tough start to the season for Rielly, who is 30th among defensemen in points (66) since the start of the 2019-20 season.


Activating Domi suggests that he could return to the lineup on Friday. Domi missed the last four games but had a great start to the season, scoring one goal with three assists (four points) in his first two games.



Joshua comes up to replace Ryan O'Reilly, who was placed on the COVID-19 reserve list on Tuesday. Joshua had one goal in 12 games with the Blues last season.



MacEwen was claimed off of waivers from the Canucks and will draw into the lineup vs. the Bruins. MacEwen will skate on the fourth line with Nate Thompson and Nicolas Aube-Kubel.
