The Bruins played most of Thursday’s game in Seattle without one of their key players.
Elias Lindholm was limited to just three shifts in the second period and did not return after the first eight minutes. Ahead of the third period, the team announced he was out for the remainder of the game due to an upper-body injury.
Lindholm’s final shift included a collision with Shane Wright, though it didn’t appear to cause any immediate issues. Before exiting, Lindholm had six hits in 6:56 of ice time.
Without Lindholm, Bruins coach Joe Sacco had to shuffle his lines. Lindholm is a crucial part of both the power play and penalty kill units and has contributed three goals and 10 assists in 30 games this season.
