Hronek is dealing with some bumps and bruises and was questionable after missing Wednesday's practice. Head coach Jeff Blashill expects Hronek to play and he comes in with 12 points (2G / 10A) in 24 games.
Gallagher is doubtful to be in the lineup on Thursday after being moved to the COVID-19 protocol list this morning. With Gallagher likely out, look for Cedric Paquette to draw back into the lineup.
DeBrusk was a healthy scratch on Saturday but will return to the lineup on Tuesday with Brad Marchand suspended. DeBrusk recently requested a trade so any game in the lineup right now could be his last in a Bruins uniform. DeBrusk has scored three goals with three assists (six points) in 17 games this season.
Hronek was missing from Monday's practice and is questionable to play Tuesday vs. the Bruins. If Hronek can't play, look for Daniel Renouf to re-enter the lineup and Gustav Lindstrom to play on PP2.
With Max Pacioretty and Will Carrier returning on Wednesday and Adam Brooks emerging, the Golden Knights have returned three forwards to the AHL. Cotter had two goals in six games with Vegas and has four goals in 10 AHL games this season.
