In an interview on WEEI's Dale and Holley show, rookie Phil Kessel says he has received the OK from team doctors to begin a two-game stint with the Providence Bruins. Kessel would then be able to return to Boston, possibly as early as Tuesday.

The P-Bruins are at home tonight against Worcester.

Kessel, who is 19, had surgery Dec. 11 following a diagnosis of testicular cancer.
