Boston Bruins News
Suspension
Marchand has been suspended for six games for roughing/high-sticking Tristan Jarry on Tuesday.
Marchand will be out until February 24th in Seattle and this suspension will leave the Bruins without Marchand and Patrice Bergeron on Thursday. Bergeron is dealing with an upper-body injury that he suffered on Tuesday. Jake DeBrusk will move up to the top-6 tomorrow with Marchand out.
Bergeron (upper-body) will not play Thursday vs. the Hurricanes.
Bergeron suffered an upper-body injury in Tuesday's loss to the Penguins and will miss at least one game. This is a huge blow for the Bruins, who will most likely also be without Brad Marchand due to a suspension. Without Bergeron or Marchand, Charlie Coyle and Jake DeBrusk moved up into the top-6 in Wednesday's practice.
Rask (lower-body) will not practice this week.
Rask has not played since January 24th and will not practice for the rest of this week due to a lower-body injury. The Bruins said they will provide another update next week, but it's unclear what the future holds for the 34-year-old, who is 2-2-0 with a 4.28 GAA and .844 SV% in four games since re-joining the Bruins.
