Burakovsky suffered an undisclosed injury in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final and will not play in Game 3. Nicolas Aube-Kubel is expected to replace him in the lineup.



Head coach Bruce Cassidy said that Grzelcyk has been "playing through stuff" and that they need to rest him. Grzelcyk will be replaced by Hampus Lindholm, who is returning from an upper-body injury.


Anderson leads the Marlies with 26 goals, adding 16 assists (42 points) in 55 games. The 23-year-old has 13 points (8G / 5A) in 57 career NHL games to date.

The Blackhawks acquired Lafferty from the Penguins for Alex Nylander in early-January and the 27-year-old had five goals with six assists (11 points) in 45 games with Chicago. Lafferty was set to become a UFA at the end of the season.





Grzelcyk missed Tuesday's game vs. the Blues but is expected to replace Brandon Carlo (undisclosed) in the lineup on Thursday. Grzelcyk has scored four goals with 18 assists in 65 games this season but has just two points (1G / 1A) in his last 12 games.

Brossoit has been sidelined by an undisclosed injury since March 15th and was one of three players added to LTIR on Tuesday to make room for Mark Stone to be activated for their game in Vancouver. With the emergence of Logan Thompson, we may not see Brossoit again this season.

Grzelcyk suffered an upper-body injury early in Sunday's game in Washington and will not play vs. the Blues. Head coach Bruce Cassidy said that he "feels a little better" but will miss at least one game.

Grzelcyk played just 3:11 TOI in Washington on Sunday before suffering an upper-body injury. The Bruins have plenty of depth on the blueline, so they'll be able to survive without Grzelcyk in the short term but they will be hoping this isn't a long-term injury.
