Crucial update released on Bruins' Taylor Hall

The Boston Bruins continue to roll along and threaten to break the National Hockey League record for most regular season wins, though they've hardly been at full strength over the course of the year. And while they've added several reinforcements of late, they could be getting a key piece of their lineup back in short order.

Forward Taylor Hall, who has been absent since February 25 thank to a lower body injury he suffered on the team road swing, is expected to return to practice on Monday according to a report from Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe. He writes that Hall "is expected to begin practicing on Monday and likely will return to action upon the conclusion of the club’s upcoming five-game road trip that kicks off Sunday afternoon in Detroit."

In 58 games this season for the Bruins, Hall has scored 16 goals along with 20 assists.
