In a crucial Game 5 of their first-round playoff series, the Boston Bruins will be missing second-line forward Viktor Arvidsson, who did not travel with the team due to an undisclosed injury sustained after a hit by Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson. The Bruins, trailing the series 3-1, are looking to bounce back after a 6-1 defeat in Game 4. Coach Marco Sturm mentioned potential debutants Michael Eyssimont and Alex Steeves, while veteran Henri Jokiharju will replace Jordan Harris. Arvidsson previously scored twice in Boston’s Game 2 victory.
