Boston
Khudobin skated over to the Bruins bench at Warrior Ice Arena just before practice and had his right arm or wrist attended to by the training staff. The goaltender then left the ice and didn’t return.
The Bruins were already without Tuukka Rask, who has been out since Oct. 20 against the New Jersey Devils because of an undisclosed injury. Heading into their home game against the Minnesota Wild tonight, the Bruins (3-2-0) don’t know who will be their starting goaltender.
“This is hockey,” Bruins coach Claude Julien. “We deal on a day-to-day basis with injuries. You wait for the news and you go about doing your job as it’s required. If we have to make some adjustments and we have to have different personnel, we’ll deal with it when we have more of an update. But right now I have nothing.”
Julien had no immediate update on Khudobin, and the coach said Rask is still day to day.
Malcolm Subban, the Bruins’ first-round pick (24th overall) in 2012, was recalled from Providence of the American Hockey League on Monday to fill in for Rask.
Subban, the younger brother of Nashville Predators All-Star defenseman P.K. Subban, then became the lone goaltender for the hour-long practice.
Montreal
Shea Weber and Alexander Radulov, into the empty net, also scored for Montreal. Carey Price made 31 saves for his third consecutive win to start the season.
Jakub Voracek scored the lone goal for the Flyers (2-3-1). Steve Mason stopped 30 of 32 shots.
Gallagher scored on the power play at 13:08 of the third period, just four seconds into Montreal’s man advantage. The pesky wing deflected Radulov’s shot from the point past Mason.
Gallagher got the play going after winning the faceoff to the left of Mason before scoring his team-leading fourth goal of the season.
