The Boston Bruins may have just confirmed if David Pastrnak will play tonight against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The Boston Bruins lost superstar David Pastrnak ahead of the holiday break in their last game against the Washington Capitals during the second period, and he would not return to the game.
UPDATE: David Pastrnak (upper-body) is unlikely to return to tonight's game.
After being injured it was unsure how long David Pastrnak would be out for with the upper-body injury he suffered.
Today the Boston Bruins received some big news as David Pastrnak was present on the ice for their morning skate.
David Pastrnak is on the ice here at Nationwide Arena for #Bruins morning skate. Boston's leading scorer had left Monday's game with an upperbody injury.
A report just came out, and it may have just confirmed whether or not David Pastrnak will play tonight or not.
Bruins insider Tom Calautti stated that it looks like David Pastrnak will play tonight for the Bruins as they take on the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Great reporting from @globejimmcbride this morning. Looks like Pastrnak is in tonight so hopefully the UBI suffered against Washington wasn't too serious. Let's see if the #NHLBruins can snag a road win against Columbus
The Boston Bruins morning skate today also seems to confirm that David Pastrnak will play as he was taking line rushes on his normal line.
If David Pastrnak was not playing tonight, he more then likely would not be taking rushes, and the Bruins would have probably placed someone in his spot.
