Status report
Jarvis left a 6-2 win against the New York Islanders on Thursday after blocking a shot in the third period and could play. "I think he'll be alright. I think we dodged a bullet there," Hurricanes coach Rod Brind'Amour said. ... Kochetkov, a goalie, was activated from injured reserve on Friday after dealing with a lower-body injury but Rod Brind'Amour said he wasn't sure if he would travel for the game. ... Miller, a defenseman, was placed on injured reserve retroactive to Oct. 20. He has missed the past four games. ... Elias Lindholm, who left in the second period of a 4-3 overtime win against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday, will be out for a few weeks, Bruins coach Marco Strum said. With the forward out, Khusnutdinov will center the top line. Beecher, who has been a healthy scratch, will enter the lineup on the fourth line.
