This just in, Boston Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron will NOT play this evening when his team opens up the Stanley Cup Playoffs against the Florida Panthers.
As reported above by NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, goaltender Linus Ullmark will get the start in goal.
Head coach Jim Montgomery announced earlier today that there's an "illness going through the team" and that Bergeron and Ullmark were both questionable for this evening's game. It's expected that centerman Pavel Zacha will slide into Bergeron's usual spot as the Bruins' top line center.
