    Chicago Blackhawks winger Marian Hossa is likely to play in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup finals against the Boston Bruins on Wednesday after being a surprising scratch for Game 3, coach Joel Quenneville said.

    Other than saying it's an upper-body injury, Quenneville wouldn't go into detail about why Hossa, who is tied for the team lead with 15 playoff points, was scratched from Monday's game after participating in the pregame warm-up.

    "Not going to go exactly where the injury is or [when it] occurred, but I'm going to say he's likely to play tomorrow night," Quenneville said.

    Ben Smith, who did not take part in the warm-ups, subbed in for Hossa.
