No sooner had Patrice Bergeron been nominated for a fifth Selke Award Wednesday than the heart-and-soul of the Bruins was ruled out of Game 4 with an upper-body injury just minutes before the opening faceoff Thursday.
So much for Bruce Cassidy having his forward lines intact; it was back to his juggling act with Riley Nash moving up once again to center the first line.
