Exclusive: Don Sweeney Provides An Overall Injury Evaluation For The Bruins’ Squad
Don Sweeney, general manager of the Boston Bruins, broke some excellent news.
During a news conference held on Wednesday at TD Garden to wrap off the season, Sweeney informed reporters that he does not believe any players on the Bruins will require offseason surgery.
Not at all. Fortunately, we don’t have anyone right now,” Sweeney stated, according to a transcript supplied by the team. “A few players will need some follow-up supplies, but we don’t have anyone available for surgery.”
Although it’s common for real injury updates to surface following an NHL team’s season, many of those revelations involve offseason surgeries. That’s not to say Bruins players didn’t deal with injuries during the season; defenseman Derek Forbort underwent surgery for two separate injuries midway through the season, and Bruins captain Brad Marchand missed a few postseason games against the Florida Panthers due to health issues.
