says it's a fractured kneecap for Lindholm
Here is the shot that ended up fracturing his knee:
Hampus Lindholm went to the locker room shortly after blocking this shot from Justin Faulk. Looks like Lindholm took the puck off the left knee.
Some situations a fractured knee cap results in having to get surgery done, hopefully for the Boston Bruins and Hampus Lindholm this is not the case.
But some good news just surfaced regarding Lindholm's injury.
Scoops, the same insider that broke the original news of Hampus Lindholm having a fractured knee revealed some good and bad news regarding his injury.
It was revealed that Hampys Lindholm will not require surgery, but he is expected to be out for 6 weeks.
Scoops: Hampus Lindholm does not need surgery, expected to be out 6 weeks.
The Boston Bruins are already without Andrew Peeke, who does not have a timeline to return to the team yet, and now they are with out one of their best players this year.
A new troubling update was just announced by the Boston Bruins
Today before heading into the Boston Bruins game against the St. Louis Blues, the Bruins announced multiple roster moves, including one with Hampus Lindholm which is tough for the Bruins.
The organization announced that Lindholm has now officially been placed on IR (injury reserved).
This is tough for the Bruins, but hopefully when he comes back at 100% he is able to make an impact like he was before being injured.
