Is that how soft the Bruins have become? They need other teams to do their fighting for them now.

Any update on Foligno’s status? Wondering whether a replacement will be needed for Buffalo tomorrow.

other than Frederic, can`t think of a B`s player who`d drop them with Wilson, when it comes to nasty and physical play, this Bruins team is hardly a world beater

Foligno was the "toughness" to replace Ritchie.
Uh oh.
Back to literally only Frederic who hasn't displayed toughness in nearly a calendar year.

Cassidy said Foligno was due to have an MRI on his undisclosed upper-body ailment. The 33-year-old was hampered last spring by what he has termed a “debilitating” back injury, which caused him to miss three of Toronto’s seven playoff games. The former Columbus captain signed with the Bruins for two years and $7.6 million in July.
Smith, Cassidy said, is “dealing with a bit of a nagging injury that we’re trying to work through.” He did not skate Saturday.

Got the Backes fears, luckily it’s two years
Nick Foligno heads to IR
The Bruins will be without Nick Foligno for their two-game trip to Florida (Wednesday) and Carolina (Thursday). The veteran forward, who has been skating the No. 3 right wing, was placed on injured reserve with an upper-body injury before Sunday’s matinee.
Speaking before puck drop, Cassidy said he didn’t know how long Foligno would be sidelined.
Jack Studnicka made his season debut on the fourth line, centering Trent Frederic and Karson Kuhlman. The other call-up, with Craig Smith (undisclosed) also out of the lineup, was Oskar Steen.
Smith’s nagging ailment, Cassidy said, “didn’t respond as well as we’d hoped” to yesterday’s treatment in Brighton.
Hit-first left wing Anton Blidh (upper body), who according to Cassidy has a similar, albeit undisclosed, injury to Foligno, will not travel to Florida

ugh the Foligno stuff is not sounding good.
As for Smith, I hope he didn't reinjure whatever he hurt in the playoffs (knee?).

For some reason I thought it was a groin injury for Smith.
Hopefully Foligno’s injury isn’t his back again.
Edit:
If it really is Foligno's back, we should pull a Kucherov and IR him until the playoffs.

As long as they replace him with a tough third line winger. Sweeney and Lady Byng Cassidy seem to have trouble finding and playing these type of players though.
What does toughness have to do with getting an injury? Even guys who play a "tough" game can get injured. You think Kevan Miller wasn't tough?

Nothing. The point was Foligno was allegedly here to add toughness to replace what is lost in Ritchie.
Edit: intended more in an exasperated manner than to rehash the debate.

This is for updates not the good old tough/soft debate.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Curtis Lazar may be ready to rejoin Bruins lineup Wednesday in Florida - The Boston Globe
Neither Foligno nor Smith was aboard the afternoon flight out of Hanscom to Florida. Foligno, placed on injured reserve over the weekend, won’t be back for a while. Cassidy is hopeful that Smith could be ready for the Panthers rematch Saturday night at the Garden.
Lazar, no surprise, said he’ll be happy wherever he’s asked to play. He is a righthanded shooter, which likely means he would move to right wing on the fourth line if Cassidy opts to keep Trent Frederic as that line’s pivot.

Oh, I see. I thought you were making a different point.

Still a ways to go, it seems.
Bruins Injuries: Bruce Cassidy Offers Update On Nick Foligno
Although Nick Foligno is back on the ice, he isn’t ready to re-enter the fray.
Boston Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy offered an update on the injured forward’s condition Sunday. Foligno is on injured reserve and has missed the last five games due to the upper-body injury he suffered Oct. 20. Cassidy revealed Foligno is skating on his own, but his status remains week-to-week.
“He’s skating, which is good,” Cassidy said at a press conference, per the Bruins’ website. “Not with us, unfortunately, which is not going to put him in the lineup any time before he can skate with us. Still list him as the same as where he’s been.”
