Last night, the Boston Bruins lost more than just a game against the Dallas Stars. They lost a member of the 2011 Cup team, an alternate captain, and one of their most underrated players on their squad. Chris Kelly went down just 1:40 into last night’s game. He suffered a broken leg and had surgery on it earlier today.
