Backes injury looked serious, possibly a concussion. He's been healthy during most of his career but the wear and tear are catching up to him as he turns 30. Hoping he's not out too long as his presence and experience will be missed.
Who gets the call up? Or do they roll with the usual suspects, Nash, Schaller and Jimmy?
How many concussions does Backes have? I know he suffered one in the Blues/Hawks playoff series years ago. I would like to see the Bruins sign Mueller to a 2 way contract and give him a shot. He has size and can score and is a vet, Claude seems to only want more older players anyways. Better option then Hayes and he is in house, so try it. If it does not work send him back down and then you know he is not worth another look.
any updates on backes and how much time he will miss? I'm assuming we wont find out until a week or so?
BACKES OUT OF BRUINS LINEUP 'INDEFINITELY' WITH CONCUSSION

Instructed to not watch TV or use his phone. Sounds like he will be out for a long time.
Any ideas how long he may be out for?
Injury thread ---should be pointed out that Carrier's hand "injury" only lasted the 1 game, which was the rematch against Boston where he would have to face McQuaid.
Amazing, I'm not sure I remember a hand injury only being 1 game before as it always seems to be weeks. Very convenient for Carrier.
