Stralman is expected to miss his third straight game with an upper-body injury, but is getting closer to a return. Erik Cernak will likely remain in the Lightning lineup with Stralman out.
McAvoy has missed the last eight games with a concussion and isn’t expected to return any time soon. McAvoy will not travel at the start of the Bruins road-trip, so he’ll miss at least Wednesday’s game in Colorado and likely their back-to-back on Friday and Saturday.
Rask missed the last few games because of a personal leave of absence, but was back on the ice for Tuesday’s practice. Rask may sit out Wednesday’s game in Colorado, but should start either Friday in Dallas or Saturday in Arizona.
Zacha struggled to start the season with New Jersey, failing to pick up a point in his first 10 games. Since being sent to Binghamton, the former No.6 overall pick had five assists in four games. Zacha has been brought back up because Brian Boyle has landed on IR.
The Bruins announced on Friday that Rask has been granted a leave of absence, which means they will ride Jaroslav Halak as their No.1 netminder. There is no word on how long they expect Rask to be away from the team.
Rask allowed two goals on 22 shots in the Bruins loss to the Canadiens on October 27th. Jaroslav Halak started the last two games, but they’ll go back to Rask tonight to kick-off a four-game week. Rask has had his struggles this season, but is 2-1-0 with a 2.37 GAA and .920 SV% on home-ice.

Zacha has not recorded a point in 10 games this season, so he heads to the AHL for the first time since 2015-16. Zacha has been a solid defensive centre for the Devils, but they were expecting to get more offence out of him when they picked him No.6 overall in 2015. His move to the AHL will allow him to play huge offensive minutes and try to re-discover that part of his game.
McAvoy’s move to IR is retroactive to October 18th, so he’s eligible to return whenever he is 100 percent. McAvoy did not skate on Monday after retuning to the ice on Saturday, so his move to IR suggests that he may have suffered a setback. McAvoy won’t play Tuesday, but monitor his status as the week progresses.
Korpisalo allowed four goals on 38 shots in the Blue Jackets 5-4 overtime win vs. Buffalo on Saturday. The Blue Jackets will stick with Korpisalo for the third straight game. He is 4-0-0 despite posting an ugly 3.64 GAA and .897 SV% through four starts.
Korpisalo allowed four goals on 37 shots in the Blue Jackets win in St. Louis on Thursday. Korpisalo has won each of his first three starts this season, despite posting a below average 3.29 GAA and .898 SV%. He continues to steal starts from Sergei Bobrovsky and makes for a decent option against the 25th ranked offence in the NHL (2.60 GF/PG).
Rask allowed one goal on 39 shots in the Bruins win in Ottawa on Tuesday. Rask has won three of his last four starts while allowing a combined 12 goals on 134 shots (.911 SV%).
