Chuck Kobasew will finally make his Bruins debut tonight. The gritty forward was acquired by Boston_ along with defenseman Andrew Ference _ from Calgary in exchange for defenseman Brad Stuart and forward Wayne Primeau on Feb. 10.
Entering last night's game he had missed 17 games due to a dislocated elbow and he was finally cleared to play.
"He feels much better," said Bruins coach Dave Lewis. "He was checked out by the doctors and trainers and they feel he's 100 percent ready to go."
The coach said he didn't think Kobasew would be able to play until the weekend.
"It'll be exciting to see him on the ice," added Lewis. "I'll ease him in and get him comfortable with playing. He hasn't played for six weeks so he'll have some rust."
At the start of the game Kobasew will play with Phil Kessel and Brandon Bochenski.
