Bruins suffer major loss on defense with gruesome injury against Canadiens

Early in the 2025-26 season, the Boston Bruins have been hit with injuries. First, it was defenseman Hampus Lindholm in the second game of the season, and he missed a couple of weeks. Then it was center Elias Lindholm that went down with an injury a couple of weeks ago against the Buffalo Sabres when he took a center ice hit from Jordan Greenway.

Boston appears to have avoided an injury with John Beecher last week, but on Saturday night at the Bell Centre, they suffered another injury in the second period, this time to defenseman Charlie McAvoy.
