After Tuesday night's loss to the Predators, Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery made sure to get the facts straight with the media regarding one of his injured players.
On a recent episode of Insider Trading, TSN's Darren Dreger reported that forward Taylor Hall was ready to return from injury, but the salary cap is keeping him from being activated.
''The problem is, the Bruins don't have the cap space to activate Taylor Hall.''
- Darren Dreger
Reports are ''False''
According to Scott McLaughlin of WEEI, the Bruins bench boss was adamant with reporters postgame that these reports, were indeed, not true:
''The only thing I can say is that he is not cleared, so that report to me is false''
- Jim Montgomery
It makes sense that these reports would be false, as it would be very easy for Boston to make room for Hall. Per PuckPedia, the Bruins would have to place Derek Forbort (foot) on LTIR, and they would have $66,000 of cap space.
