The Boston Bruins, of late, have been struck with plenty of injury woes leading to a host of call-ups from their minor-league affiliate in Providence. Not altogether unlike last season in this regards.
At the last count, the Boston Bruins were missing Torey Krug, David Backes, Jake Debrusk, John Moore, Kevan Miller, Karson Kuhlman and Brett Ritchie versus the Florida Panthers. Granted, some of those names are depth players but there’s at least two playing higher up the line-up that needed a strong replacement.
