The Boston Bruins are making some moves on their blueline. With injuries to Torey Krug, Brandon Carlo, Colin Miller and now Adam McQuaid, these changes were to be expected. It isn’t ideal, but the Bruins announced Monday that defensemen Tommy Cross and Matt Grzelcyk were recalled on an emergency basis.
There was hope that Colin Miller, and to a lesser extent Brandon Carlo, could return to the lineup Wednesday, but as it stands, that doesn’t appear to be the case. The Bruins blueline in practice featured pairings of:
Zdeno Chara-Charlie McAvoy
Joe Morrow-Kevan Miller
John-Michael Liles-Tommy Cross
Matt Grzelcyk-Colin Miller
Colin Miller skating alongside Grzelcyk likely indicates that he’s either a game-time decision or not ready to go for Monday night’s game.
