Today, the Boston Bruins got some terrible injury news regarding top forward Elias Lindholm.
Lindholm was
injured in their game on Thursday against the Buffalo Sabres.
The
Bruins ended up sending him to get an MRI to see what the injury was, and they finally have the results.
Head coach Marco Sturm just confirmed that his MRI has come back and his injury is exactly what they thought it was.
Following that up, Sturm stated that he wasn't going to share details but did state
Lindholm is being listed as week-to-week.
Sturm says Elias Lindholm's MRI confirmed what they thought it was, which he's not going to share.
Lindholm is «week-to-week.»
Being listed as week-to-week could mean multiple things. There have been times players have been listed as week-to-week but go on to miss multiple months.
The Bruins are hopeful that this isn't the case and Lindholm returns back to the lineup sooner than later.
Video of Lindholm's injury
Here is the video of Lindholm's injury. It doesn't look good, and there is a chance that he is out longer-term rather than shorter-term.
E. Lindholm and Greenway collide, looks like they clanged knees. Lindholm helped off, hopefully just a dead leg but doesn't look great.
Lindholm has been good for the Bruins to start this season after having a shaky start last year. In 13 games he has scored 4 goals and 5 assists for 9 points.
Do you think Lindholm is going to be out long-term after this update?
