Bruins announce Jordan Harris will be out two months.

Reminder: Tonight's #Isles vs. #CarolinaCulture game is an ESPN+/Hulu exclusive. It's a 7:30 PM puck drop.

When it comes to Matthew Schaefer playing in Game 10 tonight, "burning" a year off his ELC is not the correct terminology. The first year of his ELC will just not slide, that's all. #Isles

While we await roster moves.. I got some time #Isles fans for whatever is on your mind ahead of tonight's game vs. #CarolinaCulture.

#Isles officially activated Alexander Romanov off IR. He'll play tonight after missing the last five games.

Quick thoughts on #Isles Barzal disciplinary scratch tonight in Raleigh: -- When you see this happen, it's usually not the first time. It's the last straw. -- Having said that, Patrick Roy and Mathieu Darche better be right about this move. Barzal is 28, not 18 -- everyone

In order for the #Isles to make any call-up, Marshall Warren would need to be sent to Bridgeport (waiver exempt) to create a roster spot with Alexander Romanov now off IR. NYI has that cap space already -- it's just the need for a roster spot.

With Mathew Barzal not playing tonight due to disciplinary reasons, #Isles likely calling someone up from Bridgeport... Calum Ritchie is the perfect call-up option. Returned to BRI lineup last night. Has points in all 3 games he's played.

GOT A QUESTION ABOUT THE CANADIENS? If you have a question about the Canadiens you'd like me to answer in my weekly #Habs Mailbag this weekend you can post it below or send an email to montrealcanadiens@postmedia.com.

2 of 2 ... Word is, Zayne Parekh and Connor Zary will sit against Senators. Based on this comment from the #Flames coach, Parekh would be the guy who is “a little banged up.”

#Flames head coach Ryan Huska, speaking to media in Ottawa about his lineup tonight: “We have one guy that’s a little banged up that won’t be playing and we’ll have another change up front, as well.” (1 of 2)

#Isles — gladly — burn a year off of Schaefer’s ELC.

Bridgeport #Isles announce that they have recalled Calle Odelius from Worcester. Odelius played three games in the ECHL with no points, was a -5.

Dustin Wolf getting a night off as #Flames visit Ottawa. Will be Devin Cooley's second start of the season.

MacDermid and Spence are in. Ullmark starts. Matinpalo and Lycksell are out #Sens

After seeing that LI native Brandon Bussi was getting the nod vs. #Isles, I called my old goalie coach, who also happened to be Bussi's old goalie coach @cmtesta1, to talk about his talent & drive. Will have that conversation over at @TheElmonters for you this afternoon.

Linus Ullmark is the first goalie off the ice. He starts #Sens

Today's alignment. Looks like Spence will be in #Sens Cousins-Stützle-Batherson Greig-Cozens-Perron Amadio-Pinto-Giroux MacDermid-Eller-Zetterlund Lycksell Sanderson-Zub Chabot-Jensen Kleven-Spence Matinpalo

Obviously rounding into form, #Flames summer signing Ivan Prosvetov stopped 58-of-59 (and three more in the shootout last night) to lead the AHL's Wranglers to back-to-back victories over the reigning Calder Cup champs in Abbotsford.

#Isles starting netminder vs. CAR, David Rittich, has gotten off to a strong start this season. 2-0-0, 2.01 GAA, .940 SV% He’s stopped 63 of 67.

#Isles (4-4-1) battle the #CarolinaCulture (6-3-0) tonight in Raleigh. Rittich will start for NYI. Both teams on 2-game losing streaks. Puck drop is at 7:30 ET (ESPN+/Hulu). There is no MSGSN broadcast.

#Isles have scored 32 goals this season. No. 1 overall pick Matthew Schaefer has been on the ice for 16 of them, recording nine points.

#Isles will face Mike Reilly tonight for the first time since he signed with CAR. Glad to see he’s not only able to continue his career after his heart procedure but that he’s also getting playing time, averaging 18:07 minutes per game.
