Player Notes

  • Good to go Friday
    Schenn (illness) is in Friday's Game 6 lineup against Vancouver, Nick Kieser of 102.5 ESPN Nashville reports.

    Advice: Schenn will return after missing Game 5 on Tuesday. The veteran blueliner has averaged 15:03 of ice time with 12 hits through four games this series. He'll skate in a middle-pair role Friday. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
  • Unavailable Friday
    Smith (upper body) will not play Friday against the Canucks.

    Advice: Smith is considered day-to-day, so he could return Sunday for Game 7 if Nashville avoids elimination Friday. The 28-year-old has 12 hits and no points in five games this series. Juuso Parssinen will dress in his absence. Rotowire.com 44 minutes ago
  • Tending twine Friday
    Saros will face the Canucks at home for Game 6 on Friday.

    Advice: Saros turned away 19 of 20 shots in Tuesday's win to force Game 6. Through five games this series, he's allowed only 11 goals but it's come with a lackluster .879 save percentage. To avoid elimination, Saros will need to earn consecutive wins for the first time since April 4 and 7. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago
  • Returns to minors
    DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, per Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal.

    Advice: DiPietro was summoned Tuesday so the Bruins would have a third goaltender on their playoff roster. He might be recalled ahead of Game 7 on Saturday against Toronto to continue to serve that function. DiPietro hasn't played for Boston in the regular season or playoffs in 2023-24, but he did record a 2.51 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 30 regular-season outings with Providence.

  • Good to play for Team Canada
    Guhle, who missed the final seven games of the regular season due to a head injury, will join Team Canada for the upcoming IIHF World Championship.

    Advice: Guhle finished the 2023-24 season with six goals, 22 points, 56 PIM, 116 hits and 178 blocks in 70 contests with Montreal. He served in a top-four capacity with the Canadiens, and the 22-year-old should act in a similar capacity for the franchise next campaign. In the meantime, Guhle will get in some extra high-level action during the tournament before beginning his summer training. Rotowire.com Today, 1:02 pm
