If I have an injury, I’d like to have Scott Waugh and the Bruins medical/training staff on my team.

Marchand, Gryz, McAvoy and now good news on Swayman.

Bruins medical team (and tons of hard work on player’s part no doubt) have done an excellent job.

Extraordinary job, actually.

Other than Patrice Bergeron (maintenance), defenseman Jakub Zboril was the only one missing from the brief workout. According to Montgomery, Zboril was excused due to illness. “He ran a fever overnight,” said the coach. In all likelihood, that means the 25-year-old blueliner will sit out again Saturday, after being scratched Thursday in favor of veteran reserve Anton Stralman, who paired with Brandon Carlo vs. the Flyers …
 
Are there any Fredric updates

Trent Frederic did not practice. He is officially day-to-day with an upper-body injury, after missing all of Monday’s third period after crashing left-shoulder-first into the end boards. Montgomery said he was leaning toward playing Craig Smith regardless of Frederic’s status. The right winger (1-2—3 in 10 games) has sat the last four games, and has now been a healthy scratch for nine games this season. Smith, a 12-year-veteran, and his coach had breakfast together Tuesday morning. “He’s ready,” Montgomery said. “He’s a pro. His attitude’s great. He’s extremely well-liked by his teammates and he’s a big part of the culture here.”
 

I noticed from the pictures of the Bergy celebration that Forbort is traveling with the team despite being “weeks away,” may just be team culture of keeping guys involved, or maybe because this is a finger injury and he prefers to skate with the crew. Anyway, great to see him actually smiling in the room:nod:
 

SUNRISE, Fla. — Bruins defenseman Derek Forbort, his broken finger healed well enough, practiced Tuesday for the first time since he was hurt three weeks ago.
Wearing a plastic splint underneath his glove, Forbort took to the ice at FLA Live Arena. During the first drill involving goalies, he launched a slapper at the net and snapped his stick in two.
“This,” Forbort joked, “is what happens when you have a bionic finger.”
The cheerful-yet-deadpan Forbort skated with his teammates for the first time since breaking his right middle finger Nov. 1 at Pittsburgh. The defenseman had surgery two days later. Coach Jim Montgomery said Forbort was maintaining his skating legs for when he returns.

“There’s no updated timeline on him,” said Montgomery, adding that it was a good sign Forbort could stickhandle and make passes. “Still can’t shoot,” he said, before adding a joke. “Couldn’t before, either.”

Given the nature of the injury, Forbort didn’t believe doctors at first when they told him he had a four-to-six-week timeline. He feels he is on schedule.

“Everything feels good,” he said. “My hands didn’t feel like they got any worse … which is hard to say, but … no, it’s good. Trying to get the shooting back. That’s the last step.”

The last person I listen too for timelines is Jim Montgomery.

That is all.
 

Ullmark exits​

Goaltender Linus Ullmark, who departed in the third period when hurt in a goal mouth pileup, appeared to be favoring his right arm as he skated off the ice to go to the dressing room.

Coach Jim Montgomery confirmed postgame that Ullmark, 13-1-0, was the victim of friendly fire, hurt when teammate Connor Clifton fell high across his back. Ullmark was already down from a previous stop when the 5-foot-11-inch, 190-pound Clifton, who had scurried behind him, dropped on him while attempting to help Ullmark make another stop.

“I think he has a little concern, because it’s something he hasn’t dealt with before,” said Montgomery. “But he has range of motion already, so we’re pretty confident he’s OK”

The Bruins don’t play again until Tuesday (a visit by Tampa), so there is no urgency to summon another goalie from the minors. If the call is made, then it will be Keith Kinkaid from Providence.
