Krug (upper body) recorded two helpers in 21:34 worth of ice time in Tuesday's 7-3 win over Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

NESN.com relays that the Bruins were not optimistic about Krug's chances of playing Tuesday, but the mobile blueliner toughed things out and made a mark on the team's power play, where he notched both of his points in the contest. In the process, Krug snapped a six-game point-scoring drought, and as long as he stays healthy, the Bruins will be counting on him to be a key cog on their power-play, with David Krejci now missing from that unit.
