Matt Beleskey is expected to return to the Boston Bruins’ lineup Tuesday night against the Arizona Coyotes after missing the previous two games with an upper body injury.
B’s head coach Claude Julien told reporters after Tuesday’s morning skate at TD Garden that the veteran forward is good to go. He returned to practice Monday and took part in Tuesday’s skate.
Beleskey has played the majority of his even-strength shifts alongside David Krejci and David Pastrnak on Boston’s second line. He has tallied two points (one goal, one assist) and four shots in five games.
Beleskey’s last game was Oct. 17 against the Coyotes. The Bruins won 5-3, but Beleskey did not tally a point or a shot on goal in 17:23 of ice time.
Beleskey signed with the Bruins in July after scoring a career-high 22 goals for the Anaheim Ducks last season.
