Boston's Loren Gabel has been placed on long-term injured reserve after sustaining an injury during a game last month and may not be eligible to return until April 24. In response, the team has made some roster moves, including signing Nicole Kosta to a standard player agreement (SPA) and adding forward Kelly Babstock to a 10-day contract. Meanwhile, Montreal has signed Mikyla Grant-Mentis to a SPA for the remainder of the season, and New York has brought on board Alexa Gruschow and Carley Olivier from their reserve list on 10-day contracts.
