Kelly out indefinitely with broken tibia
Kelly is out indefinitely. The severity of the break is unknown. The Bruins have not said whether he will require surgery.
Kelly, 32, was hurt when he collided with former Senators teammate Chris Neil. The Ottawa bruiser banged his left knee into Kelly’s leg. Neil said it was an accident, a sentiment shared by Bruins coach Claude Julien.

Bruins’ top line missing its mark
“For some reason, our top line was overpassing and we weren’t getting any shots on net,†the Bruins coach said after the loss. “It was hard to create more offense after we took that 2-0 lead. In the third period, it was about playing our best period. We had to go out there and not sit on our heels.â€
In the last 12 games, Patrice Bergeron’s line has carried the offense. Bergeron, Brad Marchand, and Tyler Seguin have combined for 16 goals and 26 assists. Against Pittsburgh, Bergeron and Marchand assisted on Seguin’s net-front first-period strike. Earlier in the first, Bergeron set a screen on Zdeno Chara’s power-play goal. The three forwards have been dynamic offensively and thorough in their own end.

Marchand’s recipe: Sugar and salt .
Raymond Marchand, Brad’s grandfather, was a couple of inches smaller than the Bruins forward, but that never kept him from making his presence felt, either on the hockey rink or in the boxing ring.
“He was only 5-foot-7, but he was tough as nails. It didn’t matter how big a person was, if you challenged him, you were going down. It’s just the way it was,†said Kevin Marchand, Raymond’s son and Brad’s father, who coached his son in Halifax, Nova Scotia as a Pee Wee and Bantam. “If you underestimated his strength, that’s when he’d catch you off guard, that’s when he’d catch you. And that’s what they tend to do with Brad. They underestimate his strength, his ability, his balance. And therefore, he can get the upper hand on you.â€

Bruins, minus Chris Kelly, seek recovery from latest disappointing loss
They’ve done it before and they’ve recovered before.
The Bruins will have to try to do that again, except this time they’ll be a bit shorthanded.
The B’s announced Wednesday afternoon that center Chris Kelly, who left Monday’s 3-2 win at Ottawa after absorbing a leg-to-leg hit from the Senators’ Chris Neil, had broken his left tibia (shin) and would be out of their lineup indefinitely.
