BOSTON (AP) — A major part of the Boston Bruins’ success the past several years has been their depth at center.
That depth might be tested early this season, with center David Krejci questionable for the Bruins’ regular-season opener at the Dallas Stars on Thursday.
Krejci, who suffered a lower-body injury and played just two shifts in a preseason game on Sept. 23, practiced Tuesday. But he didn’t take contact and general manager Don Sweeney left open the possibility that the Bruins won’t have Krejci against the Stars.
“It’s to be determined still,” Sweeney said. “He worked his way back up there for sake of a practice, and he’ll continue to do the same.
