Boston's practice gives clearer picture of Bruins injury situation
The Bruins have lost four of their past five games since some of their stars went down.
And now, with the Pittsburgh Penguins up next tomorrow, the B's want to avoid their first four-game losing skid of the season at all cost.
Boston's goaltending department got some sort of good news this morning. After leaving the game during last night's first intermission, Linus Ullmark was in the building with his teammates.
While he didn't join them on the ice for practice, the B's seem optimistic that his injury won't keep him out of action for long.
On the backend, the B's are getting healthier by the day. This morning, Brandon Carlo was back on the ice and showed no signs of injury in the more intense portions of the practice. His status for tomorrow's game remains unknown for now however.
Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy also mentioned that Trent Frederic would be reinserted in the lineup for the game against the Pens. The winger wasn't injured, but simply made a healthy scratch last night. He'll take Tomas Nosek's spot.
For those wondering if stars Hampus Lindholm and David Pastrnak were close to returning to action; the bad news is they're both out tomorrow, but the good news is that they're both back on the ice.
