Boston Bruins lose David Backes again, this time for 8 weeks

Just when it looked like the Boston Bruins were starting to figure some things out. They had gotten a point in 5 straight games. Just when a replacement for the injured David Krejci had been found for the second line. It seems absolutely against the laws of probability that what has been happening in Boston would continue. But still, the Bruins injury train just keeps on rolling.

It has been announced by the team that Bruins forward David Backes will be out for the foreseeable future. As I’m sure you recall, Backes missed the start of the season due to diverticulitis, a gastrointestinal disease.
