After multiple injuries down the stretch, things are looking up for the league leading Bruins, with the latest update coming from Nick Foligno.
Hinting At His Return?
Foligno has been sidelined since February 28th, when he suffered a lower-body injury against the Calgary Flames during the team's Western road trip.
Last week, the veteran joked about having to ‘'persuade'' the medical staff to give him the go-ahead.
''I'm gonna try my hardest and probably throw some threats at people if not.''
When talking to the media after Saturday's practice at Warrior Ice Arena, he shared whether those threats paid off, hinting at his availability for game one of the playoffs.
''I think I've made all the threats I need to make to everybody. So hopefully that did the trick and I'll be back for Game 1.''
The 34-year-old appears ready to go, but it will be interesting to see if he's in the lineup for game one against the Florida Panthers on Monday.
After just 13 points in 64 games with Boston in 2021-22, Foligno bounced back phenomenally this season by recording 10 goals and 16 assists in 60 games.
