Bruins injury thread III

[Absurdity]

Bergeron skated before practice. Sean Kuraly and Ryan Fitzgerald (both lower body) joined him . . . Rask was home sick from practice. “A little bit of the flu bug,” Cassidy said, noting that Miller and Jake DeBrusk dealt with the same of late. Rask, assuming his sniffles are gone, will start Saturday against the Flyers. Jaroslav Halak gets the nod against the Red Wings . . . Jakub Lauko and Joakim Nordstrom remain out.

I'm guessing we won't see Bergeron tomorrow night...

Krug in a walking boot wtf

 

[talkinaway]

Here's a source for the above:



Yikes. I mean, generic LBI when he had an LBI before is one thing...but when the boot comes out, it's NEVER a good thing.

 

[Saxon Eric]

Sweeney last night said Grzelcyk is day to day? when did he get hurt?

 

[Bruinaura]

Anyone else with a severe case of deja vu?

 

[TwineTickler]

Anyone else with a severe case of deja vu?

reevaluated in three weeks.... screams to me "wait to see what it looks like when the swelling goes down"... I so wish we traded him in the off-season. Hopefully it's nothing major. He is our biggest piece of a package to reel in something nice

 

[UncleRico]

Krug is getting re-evaluated in 3 weeks looks like the best case scenario is that he is gone 4-5 weeks. I wonder if gryz gets his spot or if Cassidy has like enough of what he has seen out of Vaak to get him in a 3rd pairing role.

Krug in a walking boot wtf

Same foot as last year I’m assuming? My guess is yes, but one can hope!

 

[Chief Nine]

Just read a piece that said it was his left ankle which is the one he broke last year. They said it’s not related to that injury (???)

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

Maybe a high ankle sprain? Small foot fracture like Bergy had last year?

 

[Gee Wally]

Another tough break for Torey Krug, Bruins

 

[Bruinaura]

Sprains are the worst. I sprained my foot years ago and it was pure misery. Didn't help that I was an absolute klutz on crutches.

Globe article: Torey Krug to miss at least three weeks with new ankle injury - The Boston Globe

Late in Game 4 of the Bruins’ second-round series against Tampa Bay, Krug crashed blades-first into the end boards, fracturing his left ankle. This new injury, both he and Sweeney said, is not the same injury, though it is the same leg. Krug said it happened when his skate caught a rut while he played a tough puck in the corner.

Caught in a rut, you say? So.... bad ice?

 

[The don godfather]

It's ok vakainanan is gonna surprise everybody and stay with club the whole year. Zboril is who I'm worried about .

 

[TD Charlie]

Why does THIS have to be one of the busier threads a couple nights before the opener? Just why?

 

[GloveSave1]

Sweeney last night said Grzelcyk is day to day? when did he get hurt?

Yeah, seems kinda critical at this point.

 

[00BW]

Man, these Bruins D can't catch a break. Zboril, Grzelcyk, and now Krug all injured in the preseason.

With all the D injuries the Bruins have had the past 2 years, I fully understand why they have 8 NHL D (even after the McQuaid/Kampfer deal).

Thanks Chief. Poor Krug’s luck not so good lately.

 

[Chief Nine]

Thanks Chief. Poor Krug’s luck not so good lately.

Any time!

I hope this thread is very short this season.

Last year was brutal with all of the injuries.

Get well Hobbit.

Bruins are making do on defense without Torey Krug - The Boston Globe


The Bruins charter flight departed Hanscom Field in Bedford Tuesday afternoon and, as expected, Torey Krug remained grounded. His ankle injury, sustained late in the preseason, is expected to keep him out of action until the start of November, though it looks as though he’ll begin to skate again any day now.

“Progressing well, may skate this week,” said coach Bruce Cassidy, prior to the start of an all-Canadian road trip that will kick off Wednesday in Calgary, followed by stops in Edmonton, Vancouver, and Ottawa. “If he gets on the ice at some point this week, that’s always a step in the right direction.”

Bruins powerplay is more dangerous with him.

Hopefully the update on Miller is positive and he will be in on Saturday. Even though I think Miller has not been great so far this season, I really, really do not want to see Steven Kampfer on our blue line.

Kamp was not bad in pre-season and he is replacing a 3rd pairing guy. For a game or two till they get home against these 2 teams, I am okay with it.
