Teravainen is on-pace or 17 goals and 50 assists (67 points), which would be career-highs in helpers and points. Teravainen was set to become a restricted free agent this offseason with a two-year, $5.72M deal expiring.
Grzelcyk has appeared in 45 of the Bruins first 47 games this season but will sit as a healthy scratch on Thursday. John Moore will replace him on the blueline tonight.
Burakovsky has been a healthy scratch for the last two games but will replace Nic Dowd on Monday. Burakovsky has not had a good season, scoring just five goals with four assists (nine points) in 38 games this season.
Weber was hit in the face by a Mikael Granlund shot in the first period of Monday’s game. Weber ended up returning to the ice during the first but did not come back out for the second period. However, an X-ray showed no fracture to his cheek, so Weber is expected to play on Tuesday.

Anderson broke his ankle against Montreal on November 21st and will miss an extended period of time after undergoing surgery. With Anderson out, Michael McLeod was recalled from Binghamton (AHL).
Donato was sent down at the start of November after picking up just one goal in his first 11 games of the season. Since going to Providence, the 22-year-old registered five goals and four assists (nine points) in 10 games. Donato could return to the Bruins lineup in a large role because Patrice Bergeron remains sidelined.
Weber missed the first 24 games of the season but will make his debut vs. the Hurricanes on Tuesday. Weber will be back on the top pair and top power-play unit, which gives him immediate fantasy value. Weber is now 33-years-old but still owns a huge point shot. He had six goals and 16 points in 26 games last season, showcasing he can still be a double-digit goal-scorer with 20-plus assists if he stays healthy this season.
Canadiens head coach Claude Julien said that if things continue as they are, Weber could return next Tuesday vs. the Hurricanes. After Friday, Weber will have missed the first 23 games of the season after undergoing surgery in early-July.

Grzelcyk has missed the last two games with a lower-body injury, but could return tonight vs. the Stars. Grzelcyk skated as an extra during line rushes but participated on the second power-play unit, suggesting he may replace Jeremy Lauzon tonight.
Donato was viewed as a young, breakout candidate in 2018-19, but has struggled early in the season. The former second-round pick had nine points in his first 12 games with the Bruins after leaving Harvard at the end of last season, but has picked up just one goal through 11 games this year. Donato will go to Providence to continue to develop and will likely return to Boston sometime in the near future.
Anderson made his NHL debut on Saturday because Marcus Johansson was out with an illness, but with Johansson back he will sit tonight in Tampa Bay.
