Status report
Smith will reenter the Bruins lineup after sitting out a 4-3 win against the New Jersey Devils on Friday. … Swayman will start, Bruins coach Jim Montgomery said. … Heatherington and Lucchini each was recalled from Belleville of the American Hockey League on Tuesday. … Motte, a forward who left a 3-2 overtime loss to the Washington Capitals on Thursday, is week to week. … Bernard-Docker, a defenseman who hasn't played since Nov. 19, is getting close to returning, Senators coach D.J. Smith said. … Joseph, a forward who hasn't played since Dec. 8, skated Tuesday. "He didn't feel great, so we'll give it probably another week and then try it again," Smith said.
