Hall (upper body) said Monday that he feels good and expects to return to game action Tuesday against the Bruins, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Hall has missed the last five games due to his upper-body injury, but he'll likely be activated from injured reserve ahead of Tuesday's matchup. Across his eight regular-season appearances, the 34-year-old has averaged three goals, two assists, nine hits, eight PIM and a blocked shot while averaging 13:01 of ice time.
