The Boston Bruins found themselves down an important member of their team in their first preseason game at TD Garden.
David Krejci was not on the bench to begin the second period of the B’s matchup against the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday night in Boston. The second-line center logged just two shifts in the first period.
The Bruins announced Krejci suffered a lower-body injury and would not return to the game.
UPDATE: David Krejci (lower body) will not return to tonight's game.
