Bruins May Be Without Two Of Their Best Defenceman
The Boston Bruins are bracing for a formidable defensive test in their upcoming match. In their recent clash against the Florida Panthers, the Bruins were already dealing with a defensive setback when Matt Grzelcyk sustained an upper-body injury midway through the opening period. Head Coach Jim Montgomery confirmed that Grzelcyk's absence would extend for several weeks.
Adding to their challenges, Charlie McAvoy, Grzelcyk's defensive partner, exited the game, albeit for different reasons. In the third period, McAvoy delivered a hit to Oliver Ekman-Larsson, leading to a match penalty for an illegal check to the head.
McAvoy, a standout on the Bruins' blue line, now faces potential disciplinary action from the Department of Player Safety. If sanctions are imposed, the Bruins could find themselves short two defensemen in their upcoming showdown against the Toronto Maple Leafs, as they currently lack additional defensive reinforcements.
