The Boston Bruins are gearing up for their series against the Florida Panthers, and they've got some updates on their injured players. General Manager Sweeney says he expects all of Boston's injured skaters, including Peeke and Heinen, to be ready to play at some point in the second round.

Right now, they're still figuring out when exactly these players will be cleared to play. They hope to have a better idea by today.

Sweeney expects all of Boston's injured skaters (Peeke, Heinen)to all be available at some point in this second round.

Still assessing when they'll be cleared. Should have a better idea tomorrow




Danton Heinen was listed as day-to-day before Game 7 against the Maple Leafs. He was a game-time decision, but the Bruins decided not to play him in that game. On the other hand, Peeke started skating with a full-contact jersey the morning of Game 7. However, he's still not quite ready to come back, according to head coach Jim Montgomery.

So, while the Bruins are hopeful about their injured players returning soon, they're still keeping an eye on their progress. As they prepare for their series against the Panthers, they'll be assessing their options and making sure everyone is healthy and ready to go.
