BRIGHTON, MA – The Boston Bruins had good news and bad news to share Monday afternoon as they took a 3-1 lead in their first-round playoff series against the Stanley Cup Florida. Black Panther.
Patrice Bergeron is expected to skate during the Bruins’ practice on Tuesday at Warrior Ice Arena and could have a pretty good shot at returning to the Black and Gold in Game 5 Wednesday night at TD Garden.
“We are fortunate that [Bergeron] will be joining us for practice [Tuesday],” said Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney. “Then we will evaluate his progress and go from there. As everyone knows, it’s day by day and we’ll see how he does when he fits in with everyone else on the ice besides himself.
It might be a bit optimistic to assume he’ll play in Game 5, and the Boston Bruins might choose the wiser option of not rushing the 37-year-old’s return to action when he takes a decisive lead define 3-1 .margin in string.

Bergeron missed the first four games of the playoff series with Florida, but the Boston Bruins have gone a remarkable 8-1-0 this season when playing games without their captain, including these this playoff.
Bergeron, meanwhile, is like a Boston Bruins side coach hanging around the home team and texting B-team coaches during games about what he sees while watching the action on the field. “You could tell he was pretty excited about the way we played,” Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery said of the texts Bergeron sent to Bruins assistant coach Chris Kelly, during Game 3. “ You feel helpless. It’s like the first time you retire and become a coach. You have no influence on the ice, so how can you help?

“First of all, he’s an incredibly brilliant mind for the game. And what he shares, whether in the neutral zone, O-zone or D-zone, is very poignant.

The news was much harder for David Krejci, who was ruled out of Game 5 on Wednesday night after he was unable to play last weekend in Florida after going through pre-match warm-ups for the Game 3 on Friday night. Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney said Krejci will indeed be further evaluated by the Boston Bruins medical team for his injury, which doesn’t sound very encouraging for a player who almost avoided it. injury during the playoffs during his NHL career.

“David [Krejci] probably won’t practice [Tuesday],” Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney said. “I think we’ll have a better idea when he undergoes further testing today, we may have updated information, but I won’t promise that until the doctors have can let us know.”
The Boston Bruins will certainly be motivated to take care of the Panthers as soon as possible to give injured bodies like Bergeron, Krejci and others more time to recover if they advance to the second round.
