It’s a mixed bag of injury updates for the Boston Bruins heading into their Thanksgiving night game against the Ottawa Senators.

They get to be thankful for the return of David Pastrnak and also get Kevan Miller in the lineup. On the other hand, Zdeno Chara won’t be able to go against his former squad.

With Pastrnak back on that deadly line with Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron, Sean Kuraly was sent back to the AHL, as CSNNE.com’s Joe Haggerty notes.

It looks like the Bruins’ pairings will be:

Brandon Carlo - John-Michael Liles
Torey Krug - Adam McQuaid
Joe Morrow - Kevan Miller

Will those groups hold up? Maybe the Bruins can out-score their problems anyway? We’ll see as the game is about to get underway.
