Zdeno Chara will not play tomorrow night against the Capitals

The Bruins announced this afternoon that there will be a change to the lineup tomorrow - a single change, but a big one.

Zdeno Chara will miss tomorrow’s game due to an earlier injury: the broken jaw he suffered during June’s Stanley Cup Final.

Per the team, the jaw procedure was scheduled, and is termed a “follow-up.” My guess would be that the follow-up procedure is something that will need a couple of days to heal, and Chara and the team will use Monday and the holiday break to get it taken care of.
