• Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Expected to play Thursday

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Kastelic (lower body) is set to play Thursday against Utah. Kastelic missed Monday's 5-1 loss to Columbus due to the injury. He has three goals, seven points, 24 PIM and 75 hits in 19 appearances in 2024-25. Kastelic's offensive contributions came early in the campaign -- he has just a goal and an assist across his past 15 outings -- and he's projected to center the fourth line Thursday, so Kastelic isn't a great source of points.

• Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Hoping to play Thursday

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Kastelic (lower body) won't be in the lineup versus the Jackets on Monday but could be ready for Thursday's game versus Utah, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports. Kastelic's lower-body injury doesn't appear to be serious if he is only going to miss one full game after leaving Saturday's matchup with the Blues. Through 19 games this season, the 25-year-old center has managed three goals and four helpers without the benefit of power-play ice time. Without Kastelic in the lineup, Boston recalled Jeffrey Viel from AHL Providence and will slot him into a fourth-line role against Columbus.

• Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Suffers lower-body injury

  Kastelic won't return to Saturday's tilt against St. Louis because of a lower-body injury. Kastelic recorded one hit in 5:18 of ice time before departing the game. He entered Saturday's action with three goals, seven points and 74 hits in 18 appearances in 2024-25. If Kastelic isn't available Monday versus Columbus, then John Beecher will probably draw back into the lineup to serve in a bottom-six capacity.

• Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Tallies in overtime win

  10/27/2024 • By RotoWire

  Kastelic scored a goal, doled out six hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Maple Leafs. The goal snapped a four-game slump for Kastelic. The 25-year-old's overall numbers are a bit deceptive -- he has six points through nine contests, but he's gotten on the scoresheet in only three games. He's finding success on the Bruins' fourth line nonetheless, adding nine shots on net, 37 hits, 11 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-8 rating. Kastelic should have no trouble eclipsing his career high of 11 points from the 2022-23 campaign.

• Bruins' Mark Kastelic: Pots two goals in win

  10/11/2024 • By RotoWire

  Kastelic scored two goals on three shots along with three blocks and three hits in Thursday's 6-4 win over Montreal. Kastelic and his fourth-line mates -- Cole Koepke and John Beecher -- accounted for half of Boston's scoring output. He's on the team to do what fourth liners do, and Kastelic is not bashful when it comes to being gritty. He has nine hits and a five-minute major through his first two games in a Boston uniform.
