NHL Injury Notes
Boston Bruins: Bruins coach Jim Montgomery said forward Brad Marchand is doing well and is day-to-day. You missed yesterday’s game.
If this happened during the season there would have been back to back fights.
In the playoffs a paw to the face gets you a ticket to the penalty box.

Chip Alexander: Carolina Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said Brett Pesce skated yesterday but is still doubtful.
Evan Rawal: Believe there may be a chance for Colorado Avalanche forward Jonathan Drouin to return for Game 4 if he is cleared.
Derek Van Diest: Edmonton Oilers forward Adam Henrique missed last night’s game.
Dan Rosen of NHL.com: New York Rangers forward Filip Chytil could return to the lineup for Game 5 after missing his last game due to illness.
“As far as I know he’s feeling better today and we’ll see how he is tomorrow,” Rangers coach Peter Laviolette said Sunday. “I hope (he can be an option on Monday), but I don’t have an answer about it now. From what I understand he was feeling better last night, feeling better this morning.”
Kevin Woodley of NHL.com: Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko continues to improve and may be able to return later in the second round if that happens.
“The progress is getting better and better,” Canucks coach Rick Tocchet said Sunday. “He took a few guns. That’s a good sign. That’s the way you should look at it.
“Like I said, these things, some days you wake up and you might be at 20 percent. I don’t know, but he’s definitely improved.”
