#NHLBruins forward Justin Brazeau and defenseman Derek Forbort skated again before practice today. Both are still not expected to be ready for the playoffs, but I'll double-check when Jim Montgomery speaks later.
Montgomery stated that Brazeau is still "week-to-week," and urged against inquiries next week.
