Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron missed his second straight game on Tuesday night, a 5-1 win over the New Jersey Devils, with a lower body injury.
Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy said Bergeron would be a game-time decision after the morning skate, but he was not on the ice when the Bruins took their pregame warmup in Newark.
Bergeron, who also missed Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Washington Capitals, has eight goals and 19 points in 19 games, while averaging 18.8 minutes.
With Bergeron out of the lineup, David Krejci moved into the No.
