REPORT: Boston Bruins missing 6 'key players' for today's game
The Boston Bruins are heading into the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs as the leagues top team, and easily is the heavy-weight favourite to take home the Stanley Cup.
Each year you hear about players playing through significant injuries, just to help their team win the cup, and with the playoffs so close, some teams are hoping to get their players healthy and at 100% to start the first round.
The Bruins match up is yet to be determined with the Penguins, Islanders and Panthers all competing still for Wild Card positions, but as we speak the Bruins are playing against the Philadelphia Flyers and they are without 6 of their top players:
As of puck drop, the Bruins are without, Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Charlie McAvoy, Taylor Hall, Dmitry Orlov and Linus Ullmark.
Their current lineup is:
Marchand-Coyle-DeBrusk
Bertuzzi-Zacha-Pastrnak
Lauko-Frederic-Lettieri
Greer-Nosek-Hathaway
Lindholm-Carlo
Grzelcyk-Carrick
Zboril-Clifton
Swayman

Montgomery said he did not know how they'd do the goalie hug if they win. Maybe they'd wait for "Goalie Bob" Essensa to come down from the press box.
More importantly: he said everyone except Foligno and Forbort are expected for Game 1 (and they just aren't yet sure on them).� Matt Porter (@mattyports) April 9, 2023
