Big Updates on Bergeron and Ullmark Ahead of Game 1
The Boston Bruins suffered significant injury scares in the final two games of the season, but Saturday's morning skate brought big updates on those key players.
With Derek Forbort and Nick Foligno already on the LTIR, Vezina frontrunner Linus Ullmark was hurt in the second-last game of the season. At the same time, Patrice Bergeron was taken out of the regular season finale after the first period.
Huge Updates From Practice
The Bruins returned to Warrior Ice Arena this morning, and with it came a few major developments, most notably, no Bergeron. However, Foligno and Forbort were in regular practice sweaters for the first time since suffering their injuries, while Ullmark was also back on the ice.
Postgame Updates From Monty
Before we get too concerned, head coach Jim Montgomery provided some very positive updates on those players after the morning skate. According to Matt Porter of The Boston Globe:
By the sounds of it, Boston will have a full and healthy lineup for game one of the postseason. Game one goes down on Monday night, as the Florida Panthers will visit TD Garden.
