Won't play Thursday Kaiser (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Boston, Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio reports.

Impact Kaiser didn't participate in Thursday's morning skate due to an illness, and he'll be unavailable for at least one game. Connor Murphy (illness) will also be sidelined, so Ethan Del Mastro and Louis Crevier will enter the lineup. Kaiser should tentatively be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's game against Winnipeg.

Under the weather Kaiser missed practice Thursday due to illness, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times reports, making him questionable to face the Bruins.

Impact Kaiser's potential absence would likely see Louis Crevier step into a third-pairing role on the blue line. For his part, the 22-year-old Kaiser has generated four goals and four assists in 54 games with the Hawks while averaging 18:02 of ice time. Looking ahead to next season, Kaiser should be capable of playing in all 82 regular-season contests and could push for the 15-20 point range.
