Boston Bruins Forward Issued A Statement On Possibly Suffering A Career Ending Injury

The Boston Bruins traded Linus Ullmark during the last off-season, and in return they got Mark Kastelic along with Joonas Korpisalo, and a first-round pick.

Kastelic was big for the Boston Bruins this season, and quickly became a fan favourite in the organization due to his physicality and the fact that he protected his teammates. He is a player that exactly fits what it represents to wear the B on his chest.

To finish off the year, Kastelic suffered a season ending injury, and now it could actually turn out to be a career ending injury.

Mark Kastelic ended up missing the remainder of the regular season due to a concussion.

Today during the Bruins media availability he went on to explain that he was dealing with lingering concussion symptoms to finish off the season.

He stated that he spoke with Bergeron, a sports psychologists, and others about how to move forward, and said that he isn't worried about it carrying into next season.

This could easily change, and concussions could lead to a career ending injury. Hopefully this is not the case for Kastelic, but we won't know more details until next year.
