The Boston Bruins had one of their worst years in nearly a decade last season, but entering the 2025-26 season they were just hit with some big injury news that will benefit them.
Last season, Hampus Lindholm missed nearly the entire year after going down with an injury on November 12th.
In a game against the St. Louis Blues, Lindholm ended up blocking a shot which would ultimately cause him to miss the remainder of the season.
It was later revealed that he ended up fracturing his knee cap from blocking the shot, and although he was given a 6-8 week window to return back to the ice, he never made it back into the Boston Bruins lineup for the remainder of the year.
This caused Lindholm to only appear in 17 games, finishing the year with three goals, four assists, and 7 points.
It was a tough loss for the Boston Bruins, especially given the fact that he was their best defenseman at the time.
Recently, the Boston Bruins were hit with some good news regarding his injury.
