LAS VEGAS — Jim Montgomery provided the most promising news possible with the injury updates to Matthew Poitras, Brandon Carlo, and Linus Ullmark.
The aforementioned trio remain on the Bruins’ road trip. All three are day-to-day, with Ullmark nursing a lower-body injury as Carlo (placed on injured reserve Thursday), and Poitras continue to heal from their respective upper-body ailments.
None suited up for Thursday’s tilt against the defending Stanley Cup champion Vegas Golden Knights, who arrived in the early morning hours fresh off a 3-0 loss in Colorado. Yet, Boston’s injury situation hardly resembled that of Bruce Cassidy’s bunch as he entered the third matchup against his former team with seven players on injured reserve.
