Peeke last appeared for the Blue Jackets on January 30th but will make his first appearance in nearly a month as he replaces Adam Boqvist on Columbus' blue line Thursday. The 25-year-old has yet to score this season but has six assists, 21 SOG and a -4 plus/minus in the 20 games that he has dressed.
Swayman will return to the crease on Thursday for a Bruins team amid a three-game losing skid. Swayman allowed three goals on 39 shots (.923 SV%) in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks in his last outing and has allowed three or more goals in five of his last six (2-3-1). That said, the Bruins are -158 home favourites against the Vegas Golden Knights, who defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-2 on Tuesday.
Khusnutdinov was the 37th overall pick of Minnesota in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old Khusnutdinov has played exclusively in Europe to this point and has 20 points (6G / 14A) in 49 games with Sochi HC of the KHL.
Korpisalo will take back the crease on Tuesday after Anton Forsberg gave up six in a loss to Washington in the first part of Ottawa's back-to-back on Monday. The 29-year-old goalie's -14.6 GSAx is far and away the worst among all goalies in the NHL and is a dark spot after he signed a four-year, $20 million contract in the offseason. He will look to halt Nashville's surprising five-game winning streak as Ottawa heads to Bridgestone on Tuesday.
Arvidsson exited Tuesday's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets after playing only 17 seconds due to an undisclosed injury. It was only Arvidsson's fourth game of the season as he recently made his debut, returning from back surgery in October. He was off to a strong start before his injury, tallying two points (0G / 2A) and 12 shots in his first three games.

Linus Ullmark had a rough outing in his last contest, allowing five goals on 35 shots (.857 SV%) in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings, opening the door for Swayman to break Boston's typical goalie rotation and start back-to-back games. Swayman was spectacular against the Stars on Monday, stopping 43 of the 46 shots he faced enroute to a 4-3 shootout victory. The Bruins enter action as +118 road underdogs against the Edmonton Oilers and their fifth-ranked offense (3.56 GF / GP).

Parker Wotherspoon and Lorei are both drawing into the Bruins' lineup on Wednesday as Hampus Lindholm (undisclosed) and Kevin Shattenkirk (healthy scratch) are both not expected to play. Lohrei has not played for the Bruins since January 18th and has six points (3G / 3A) in 27 games this season.
Lindholm is not expected to play on Wednesday as he is dealing with an undisclosed injury and is now considered out week-to-week. The 30-year-old defenseman has 19 points (1G / 18A), 71 shots, and 73 blocks in 56 games. Parker Wotherspoon and Mason Lohrei are both expected to back into the lineup for the Bruins.
Harris will return to the lineup from a three-game absence due to an upper-body injury. He was limited to only 1:34 time-on-ice before exiting the Canadiens' February 11th matchup against the St. Louis Blues. Johnathan Kovacevic will be the odd man out of the lineup to make room for Harris.
Korpisalo will man the Senators' crease for the third time in four games after backing up Anton Forsberg in Ottawa's previous game. The 29-year-old is in the first of a five-year, $20 million contract in the offseason and has been highly underperforming with his 13-18-2 record, 3.41 GAA and .887 SV%. He takes on one of the NHL's hottest teams in Florida, who has won five straight and nine of their last 10 while leading the NHL in shots on goal per game (34.0).
Harris has missed the last three games due to an upper-body injury but will likely return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres. He was limited to only 1:34 time-on-ice before exiting the Canadiens' February 11th matchup against the St. Louis Blues.
Poitras missed the Bruins' previous game before the All-Star break due to the injury and did practice in full on Sunday, but the team and Poitras have opted for surgery to repair his injured shoulder, bringing a premature end to his rookie season. The 19-year-old rookie left the Bruins briefly in December to attend this year's World Jr Tournament and has made a solid impact in his rookie season with five goals and 15 points in 33 games played.
Lohrei hasn't played a game for Boston since January 18th and has primarily been with the Providence Bruins (AHL) since. The 23-year-old defender has excelled at the AHL level this season with 13 points (1G / 12A) in 17 games.
Lindholm left Monday's game after 18:09 TOI due to an undisclosed injury and will be evaluated on Tuesday to declare the extent of his injury. The 30-year-old defenseman is a key piece in Boston's impressive defensive unit and has a goal, 18 assists, 73 SOG, 54 PIMs and a +19 plus/minus through 57 games this season.
As has been the case most of the season, the Bruins will continue to alternate goalies and turn to Swayman on Monday after Ullmark played on Saturday. Swayman has a sub-.900 SV% in two of his last three games (0-3-0), a rarity for the All-Star netminder. The Bruins are -134 home favourites against a Dallas Stars club without their number one defenceman Miro Heiskanen (personal).
Blumel was recalled on Sunday purely for salary cap purposes as the Stars have opted to return him to the Texas Stars and have recalled defensemen Derrick Pouliot and Alex Petrovic instead. Blumel has been having an impressive season with the Texas Stars (AHL), scoring 38 points (20G / 18A) in 46 games.
