Status report
Boston changed forward lines in practice on Sunday, moving Steeves from the fourth to the first line, and Khusnutdinov up a line to re-unite with Minten and Pastrnak, who drops from the first line. … Aspirot is a game-time decision after skating Monday alongside Hampus Lindholm, one day being a full participant in practice for the first time since sustaining an upper-body injury on Dec. 11. If he isn't ready, Kolyachonok, a defenseman, likely will take his spot. … Jokiharju, a defenseman who has been out since Nov. 28, also practiced on Sunday but there is no timeline for his return. … Beecher replaced Kirkland, a forward at practice and could play his former team for the first time since the Flames claimed him off waivers from the Bruins on Nov. 18.
