Injury Report: Bruins Injury Thread II

[caz16]

Nash has a concussion history so it could be a delayed reaction to a hit from the previous game. I thnk he was at practice and was expected to play that day. Concussion makes the most sense to me.

 

[NDiesel]

Seems at this point that our second line wingers are the biggest concern.

Good thing they signed that Donato kid I guess

Concussion makes some sense for Nash. Hopefully he, Debrusk, and the others get better before the playoffs.

Only Pastrnak, Kuraly and Schaller have played every game this year although Riley Nash and Carlo have only missed one apiece. Not exactly a murder's row of whom you want to stay healthy all year. - and kinda surprising it's those five.

Patrice Bergeron may play this weekend for Bruins - The Boston Globe

DALLAS — Patrice Bergeron has been skating with the Providence Bruins as he recovers from his fractured right foot.
His visit to the AHL is over.

On Friday, Bergeron received medical approval to rejoin his teammates. He was scheduled to travel to Minnesota on Saturday.

On Sunday, Bergeron will participate in the morning skate ahead of the Bruins’ game that night against the Wild. Even if the Bruins decide to give Bergeron one more game off, it’s a good bet he will return to the lineup, at the latest, on Tuesday against Winnipeg when the Bruins conclude their four-game road swing.

A lot of people are asking how Rick Nash got injured. This is probably the hit that caused it. Cedric Paquette nailed Rick Nash along the board. It occurred with 8:56 left in the 3rd in the Bos vs TB game on 3/17/18. McQuaid tried to go after Paquette after the hit. Paquette has a history of dangerous hits.

Yup head hunting

After Bergy who is next set to return? This would exclude Krug. I can see him playing tonight.

My guess is Backes.

Hard to tell since the other guys are just the nebulous "upper body" ailment.

yes I thought the same concussed from a hit he took in a game he did get rocked I'm hoping Debrusk is not suffering from that also....go bruins

OH **** YEAH

 

[SPLBRUIN]

OH **** YEAH

Finally we are getting some good news regarding all these injuries, hopefully we soon hear something positive regarding Nash and Debrusk.

 

[spylogic3]

It still makes me cringe when I see Jake DeBrusk going head first into the boards. You would think that he would be the last to return from the injured list, if at all. He also had a concussion in juniors in 2015 from an illegal hit.

 

[Ladyfan]

As much as I am looking forward to the return of all of the players I hope they don't rush back if they are not ready.

Shoulder, head, or both. Yikes.

 

[veganbruin]

They are being very tight lipped about Nash makes me think everyone here is right and it’s a concussion.

 

[bruinmann77]

OH **** YEAH

hopefully we get them back before the end of the week

Never forget Z dropping him like ton of rocks with glove still on.

Patrice Bergeron expected back in lineup for Bruins Sunday - The Boston Globe

David Backes will be back soon as that line’s right wing . . . Backes, recovering from a deep gash to his right thigh sustained last Saturday in Tampa, has not resumed skating. But he has increased his off-ice workouts, with the club’s medical staff no longer concerned that the wound presents an infection risk . . .

Of the many injured, only captain Zdeno Chara and fellow blue liner Charlie McAvoy are skating, working out in Boston while the club is on the road. McAvoy has been out since wrenching a knee vs. the Habs on March 3

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

If Debrusk and Nash are out till the playoffs that's totally fine. Get'm 100% or close. Other guys back is more than enough reinforcements.

 

[smack66]

it would be nice to see a healthy lineup for a few games before the playoffs just to see how Cassidy slots everyone.
to me the big unknown is where does Donato fit if everyone is healthy?

My guess is Donato will be in the Seguin role from 2011. In for injuries and maybe an offensive jump. He just doesn't have the time to really know the system and be trusted in the playoffs over the guys that have been there all season.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

According to Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald, " Cassidy commented that Debrusk is almost back to skating ".
