^^Malhotra was always going to practice with the team and act as an impromptu assistant coach, but he's done. Won't be playing. Likely one of Higgins or Burrows shifts to centre and plays on the 3rd line. Although it's not clear how bad the injury is to Kesler, might not be super long term.
That said my immediate reaction was, "hmm, returning after a long layoff from a surgery recovery and gets a broken bone on a freak injury right away? This seems familiar; did he ask the trainer to cut his foot off this time?"
