The Boston Bruins last touched the ice one week ago in Buffalo. Even then, they didn’t know if they’d get their scheduled tilt with the Sabres after Sean Kuraly and a member of Buffalo’s staff tested positive for COVID-19.
The Bruins and Sabres got their scheduled tilt in a week ago. They weren’t so fortunate a day later as the NHL postponed their second scheduled game of the season with Buffalo on Saturday along with Tuesday’s tilt against the East Division-leading New York Islanders.
Jake DeBrusk, David Krejci, David Pastrnak and Craig Smith joined Kuraly on the NHL’s COVID protocol list last Friday.
