Gauthier (upper body) will be in the lineup to face Boston on Friday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Analysis:Gauthier will return to action after just one game on the shelf due to his upper-body problem. The 22-year-old winger is currently stuck in a three-game pointless streak, but he has registered eight shots on net over the stretch. In addition to taking back his top-six role, the Swede should also link up with the No. 1 power-play unit, where he has registered three of his four points this year.
