Adam McQuaid day-to-day, out vs. Panthers 03.14.13 at 11:55 am ET

Adam McQuaid

Adam McQuaid will not play Thursday night against the Panthers due to an undisclosed injury. McQuaid was hit in the hand with a puck Tuesday against the Penguins and did not participate in Thursday’s morning skate, though he did take the ice by himself following the skate.

Claude Julien gave a minimal update on McQuaid’s status following the session Thursday morning.

“Day-to-day, just a minor injury,” Julien said. “He’s not going to play tonight. He should be hopefully good to go tomorrow.”

Tuukka Rask was the first goaltender off the ice, indicating he’ll be in net for the B’s Thursday night. With McQuaid out and Aaron Johnson in, the lines and defensive pairings looked like the following:

Milan Lucic – David Krejci – Milan Lucic
Brad Marchand – Patrice Bergeron – Tyler Seguin
Jay Pandolfo – Rich Peverley – Jordan Caron
Daniel Paille – Gregory Campbell – Shawn Thornton

Zdeno Chara – Johnny Boychuk
Dennis Seidenberg – Dougie Hamilton
Andrew Ference – Aaron Johnson

    The last time I saw Johnson play he was solid.  The McQuaid/Ference pairing haven’t exactly been a shut down tandem this season.  Not sure what Pandalfo can give us, but with Caron added into that third line they actually played like an NHL line and he gives them a better forecheck for sure.

    @fan43…what game were you watching? Johnson is awful and with Ference on the continual decline thus far, this could get ugly…
