Oh Captain, My Captain!
According to Conor Ryan of Boston.com, Bergeron shared some positive news regarding his nagging injury. As per Ryan:
''Today is a good day and we'll see tomorrow ... I'm not anticipating any setbacks. So far, so good.''

Despite Bergeron himself expecting to be in the lineup for game five, Jim Montgomery was a little more discreet on the veteran's availability. Noting that he still has �'a couple'' more boxes to check beforehand.
''First practice with the team; we'll see how he is tomorrow morning.''
