Good evening Bruins fans. The Bruins were in Wilmington today preparing for tomorrow night's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins.Here are today's noteworthy happenings.
*David Krejci returned to practice this morning for the first time since being diagnosed with the H1N1 virus last Wednesday.
Claude Julien has not said whether or not Krejci will play tomorrow night against Pittsburgh, but people are telling me it is very likely.
*Michael Ryder missed practice today due to being ill. However, coach Julien was quick to shoot down the rumblings that he may too have H1N1.
*Here is today's lineup, plus Krejci and minus Ryder.
Mark Recchi – Patrice Bergeron – Marco Sturm
Vladimir Sobotka – David Krejci – Blake Wheeler
Daniel Paille – Trent Whitfield – Brad Marchand
Shawn Thornton – Steve Begin – Byron Bitz
*Milan Lucic skated before practice in full gear with a puck. Lucic suffered a broken right index finger, so the fact that he is handling pucks is a good thing.
Previous reports (Tweeted at http://twitter.com/BruinSpace) were that Lucic is targeting a November 19 return date.
*Marc Savard, is also progressing as scheduled right now. He is going to be out longer than Lucic, as his injury is more delicate.
Savard still has a walking boot on his left foot, but is still hoping to be back by the end of the month.
