When the Bruins take the ice for Wednesday’s head-to-head with the Oilers up at Edmonton’s Rogers Place, they will be without their left-side defensive rock, according to the team.
And that’ll remain the case for the foreseeable future. That’s because defenseman Hampus Lindholm, who left Monday’s game with an injury after an awkward-looking collision to the left of Jeremy Swayman’s net in the third period, is not even with the team right now, and has been tagged with a ‘week-to-week’ injury designation.
“Hampus is not on the trip,” Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery confirmed following his team’s morning skate. “He’s week-to-week [and] will not play the four games on the trip.”
