Major announcement involving Bruins forward Johnny Beecher
During the Boston Bruins morning practice and recent practices Danton Heinen has been missing. Following practice this morning Jim Montgomery announced that it's due to an injury.
The Boston Bruins will have to due tonight without Danton Heinen as he has been listed as day-to-day with an undisclosed injury. This however is good news for a couple of Bruins players.
Danton Heinen is out tonight. Day to day.
With Danton Heinen being injured it looks like Justin Brazeau will be taking his spot on the third line and Johnny Beecher will be taking Brazeau's spot on the fourth line. Without Johnny Beecher the Bruins are a terrible face off team, last game Beecher didn't play and the Bruins had a 37.7 faceoff percentage.

Filling the void of losing Heinen will be hard for the Bruins as they look to eliminate the Leafs from the playoffs tonight, but they are all going to need to work as a team and everyone will need to step up.
