Boston Bruins forward David Krejci is coming off the second hip surgery of his career. The 31-year old center had the surgery in May, and is expected to be ready for opening night. The Bruin alternate captain had a productive season last year, putting up 63 points (but only 17 goals) for the Black and Gold.
David Krejci has mentioned that he would like to be ready for the upcoming World Cup in Toronto. He’d be representing the Czech Republic, and he’s certainly eager to make a statement on his readiness for the upcoming 2016-17 NHL season.
There is a snag though.
