Sturm exited Saturday's game against Ottawa because of an upper-body injury, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Sturm is believed to be okay, Smith reported after the game, so the 30-year-old forward might still be able to play Sunday versus Boston. Sturm registered an assist in 10:38 of ice time before leaving Saturday's match. If Sturm can't play against the Bruins, then Hunter Haight will probably draw into the lineup.
