Bruins lose both Linus Ullmark, Matt Poitras to injury in loss to Coyotes

The injury bug has continued to sting the Bruins during this road trip out west.

Just a day after Boston lost Brandon Carlo to an injury during Monday’s shootout loss to the Avalanche, the Bruins lost both goaltender Linus Ullmark and forward Matt Poitras during Tuesday’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Coyotes.

Ullmark exited the game 2:40 into overtime while lunging to make a save, while Poitras did not return to the contest after colliding with Coyotes skater Sean Durzi early in the third period.

Postgame, Jim Montgomery noted that Ullmark and Poitras were sidelined by a lower-body and upper-body injury, respectively, but did not have a concrete timeline as to how long both players could be sidelined.
