The Bruins won’t have any reinforcements coming their way for Friday’s matchup with Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn and the desperate Dallas Stars, who return home after going 0-4-2 on their recent six-game road trip. The B’s appear closer to having Patrice Bergeron at their disposal again as the four-time Selke will seek clearance today from team doctors for his foot injury. Bergeron could join the team in Minnesota Sunday night if things go according to plan.
Bergeron, Zdeno Chara (upper-body), Charlie McAvoy (sprained MCL), David Backes (knee laceration), Rick Nash (upper-body) and Jake DeBrusk (upper-body) are all out again for Friday’s matchup, while Torey Krug (upper-body) is a game-time decision.
