Krejci Doesn't Travel To Carolina

BOSTON (CBS) – The Boston Bruins will be without front-line center David Krejci as they hit the road for the first time this season.

Krejci suffered a core injury at practice on Tuesday and is listed as "day-to-day."  The Bruins center did not travel with the team to Carolina for their game against the Hurricanes Wednesday night.

Bruins president Cam Neely would not elaborate on the injury on his Tuesday appearance on 98.5 The Sports Hub's Felger & Massarotti, but did say the team was not too concerned at this point.

Krejci will be evaluated by the team's medical staff in Boston, who will determine his status for Saturday's game in Chicago later in the week.

Krejci has one goal in the first three games of the season, anchoring the Bruins top line.

Head coach Claude Julien announced that Tyler Seguin will play alongside Milan Lucic and Nathan Horton on Wednesday night.

98.5 The Sports Hub is the only place to hear every game of the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins 2011-12 NHL season with Dave Goucher and Bob Beers.
