Status report
Drouin, who was held out of the third period of a 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators on Sunday for precautionary reasons after a hit from Reilly, will play. … Kulak will enter the lineup and Mete will be a healthy scratch. ... Chabot, who has missed two games with an upper-body injury, will be a game-time decision; Coburn will play if Chabot cannot dress, Ottawa coach D.J. Smith said.
