      Forbort (undisclosed) will return to the Bruins' lineup Tuesday vs. Calgary.

      Forbort missed Boston's previous game as he dealt with an undisclosed injury but has used the break to heal up and was a full participant in Boston's practice Sunday. With the Bruins returning to action Tuesday vs. Calgary, Forbort will return to the lineup as he looks to pick up his first goal of the campaign despite having four assists, 15 SOG, and a +12 plus/minus in 24 games played.

      Forbort (lower-body) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play against the Islanders on Thursday.

      Forbort has been out of the lineup since October 30th with a lower-body injury and was a game-time decision Thursday vs. Boston. In eight games this season, Forbort has two points (0G / 2A), 16 hits, and 13 blocks. Forbort would be a welcome addition on Thursday to a Bruins defensive core that is without Charlie McAvoy (suspension) and Matt Grzelcyk (upper-body).

      Derek Forbort (undisclosed) is day-to-day but is hopeful he can play Saturday vs. Detroit.

      Forbort is coming off a season-high 23:28 on Monday for the Bruins in their 3-2 victory over the Florida Panthers but suffered an undisclosed injury at some point and, after being unable to play on Thursday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs, remains questionable Saturday. Forbort's absence comes at a time when the Bruins are already thin on the back end, being without Charlie McAvoy (suspension) and Matt Grzelcyk (upper-body). On Wednesday, the team recalled defensemen Parker Wotherspoon, Ian Mitchell, and Mason Lohrei from the Providence Bruins of the AHL.
