Adam Kimelman: Boston Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy on their goaltending: “We have 5 games this week & we don’t know how it’s gonna play out with Halak. Tuukka is on the ice but we don’t know when he’s going to be ready. So Swayman is going to get starts anyway, might get more than 1.”

Mike Chambers: Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar is that defenseman Bowen Byram is skated yesterday and maybe an option for tonight. Byram has missed the past six games while in concussion protocol.

CBJ Public Relations: The Columbus Blues Jackets have played forward Riley Nash on the IR. Nash will be out four-to-six weeks with a knee injury.

Brian Hedger: Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella indicates that Boone Jenner‘s injury could be significant. Patrik Laine‘s shot hit around the hand and he went straight off.
