Player Notes

  • Not playing Thursday
    Lomberg (illness) will not play in Thursday's Game 3 versus Tampa Bay, according to Colby Guy of Florida Hockey Now.

    Advice: Lomberg accompanied the Panthers to Tampa Bay, but he will be replaced by Kyle Okposo on the fourth line for Game 3. Lomberg had five goals, two assists, 80 PIM and 179 hits in 75 games during the regular season. Rotowire.com Today, 9:27 am
  • In doubt Friday
    Milano (undisclosed) missed Thursday's morning skate, raising doubts about his availability versus the Rangers for Game 3 on Friday, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.

    Advice: Milano is pointless in the postseason through two games while chipping in just one shot and a minus-2 rating over that span. Despite playing in only 49 regular-season contests, the 27-year-old winger still set a new personal best with 15 goals, though he missed the 30-point threshold for the first time in the last three years.

  • Game-time call against Canes
    Martin will be a game-time decision versus Carolina for Game 3 on Thursday due to an undisclosed injury, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Martin averaged just 10:12 of ice time through the first two games of the series before picking up his undisclosed injury. If the veteran winger misses time, it's expected Ruslan Iskhakov will get a look on the fourth line, though both Oliver Wahlstrom and Simon Holmstrom could be in contention for a lineup spot as well.

  • Three points in Game 3 win
    Marchand scored two goals, including the game-winner, and added a power-play assist Wednesday in a 4-2 victory over the Maple Leafs in Game 3 of the Bruins' first-round series.

    Advice: The supreme agitator was at his frustrating best, adding six shots on net, two hits, one blocked shot, and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. While Wednesday's tallies were his first of the playoffs, Marchand has erupted for six points in three games as the Bruins have taken a 2-1 lead in the series. He'll look to stay hot Saturday in Game 4. Rotowire.com Today, 8:19 am
  • Might still play in Boston series
    McMann (lower body) could still be an option against Boston, likely returning for Game 5 or 6, Nick Barden of The Hockey News reports Thursday.

    Advice: Based on McMann's reported timeline, he won't be available for Game 4 on Saturday. Considering the winger has yet to resume skating with the team, his continued absence shouldn't come as a surprise. Prior to getting hurt, the Alberta native managed just one point over his last eight appearances, despite seeing time in a top-line role. Rotowire.com Today, 7:17 am
