Hall (upper-body) is on track to play on Wednesday.

When hall suffered an upper-body injury on October 1st, the Bruins described him as week-to-week. Hall progressed quicker than expected and is expected to play in the Bruins' season opener in Washington. Hall skated on a line with Patrice Bergeron and Jake DeBrusk in Monday's practice.

Hall (upper-body) skated in a non-contract jersey on Thursday.

Hall is apparently ahead of schedule in his recovery from an upper-body injury. According to Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery, Hall may be back "sooner than week-to-week." The Bruins' season starts next Wednesday (Oct.12) so keep an eye on Hall's progress over the weekend.

Hall is week-to-week with an upper-body injury.

Hall left Saturday's preseason game with an upper-body injury and did not return. Head coach Jim Montgomery told reporters that Hall is "week-to-week. It’s a little bit more significant than we expected." This is a huge loss for the Bruins, who were going to rely on Hall to replace Brad Marchand, who will be out until late November.
