Status report
Ullmark, a goalie, and Poitras, a forward, remain day to day; Ullmark was on the ice Saturday morning and coach Jim Montgomery said his progression is going better than expected. ... Swayman is expected to make his third start in four games. ... Zacha will be a game-time decision because of an illness; he did not participate in the Bruins morning skate Saturday. If Zacha is unavailable, Geekie, a forward, will play. ... Faulk was activated off injured reserve Friday and will return after missing five games; he will replace Scandella, a defenseman. ... Binnington will start for the fifth time in seven games.
