Injury Update On Bruins Defenseman
Boston Bruins defenseman Jakub Zboril took a significant step in his recovery journey as he returned to practice after being sidelined since the preseason opener due to injury.
Although he participated in practice wearing a non-contact jersey, this marks a positive development for the 26-year-old defenseman, especially in a crucial training camp.
Entering the final year of his contract with an AAV of $1.1375 million, Zboril faces an important camp. The Bruins could potentially place him on waivers to gain valuable cap flexibility, making it imperative for Zboril to showcase his abilities and secure his spot.
Zboril deserves recognition for his swift recovery from a torn ACL, an injury he sustained in December 2021, interrupting what had been a promising season. Last summer's training camp saw him excel, earning praise as one of the standout performers and solidifying his position as an NHL regular.
While he experienced some fluctuations in his playing time during the season, his return to practice signifies a positive step forward in his journey.
