Connolly (finger) skated during the Bruins' pregame warmups Tuesday, Amalie Benjamin of the Boston Globe reports. While Connolly won't make his team debut in Tuesday's tilt with the Panthers, his participation in warmups is further evidence that he's nearly recovered from the broken finger. He could start seeing increased contact work and upcoming practices before getting cleared for the Bruins' final few games of the regular season.
