Status Report

Florida coach Paul Maurice said it is “possible” that Bennett, a forward, returns from a lower-body injury and makes his season debut Monday. … Danton Heinen, a forward on a Professional Tryout Agreement (PTO), practiced on Boston’s fourth line next to Beecher and Steen on Monday morning, but he has not been signed to a contract yet. … Coyle and van Riemsdyk moved up to the second line during Monday’s morning skate, and Poitras and Geekie moved to the third line.
