Krug (upper body) is expected to rejoin the lineup for Saturday's matchup with Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Fantasy owners will be happy to have Krug back in their lineups Saturday, as he's been his usual highly productive self when healthy this season, racking up two goals and 13 points in 17 games. The 28-year-old American will return to his role skating on Boston's second pairing and first power-play unit against the Wild.

Krug (upper body) could be an option for Saturday's matchup with Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Having a target return date is certainly a step in the right direction for Krug, but it does mean he will be out of the lineup against Buffalo on Thursday. The blueliner notched five points in six games prior to getting hurt and will hope to keep rolling once given the all-clear. In his stead, Urho Vaakanainen should continue filling in on the third pairing.

Krug (upper body) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Devils, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Krug's eligible to return from IR for this contest, but the Bruins will keep him on the shelf with hopes he'll be ready for Thursday's matchup against the Sabres. With a hazy timeline for Krug's return, fantasy owners should consider benching him in head-to-head formats. Matt Grzelcyk has filled in on the B's top power-play unit in Krug's stead.

EDGE Analysis

Krug will still be eligible to return to the lineup Tuesday against New Jersey, but placing him on IR allowed the Bruins to add Paul Carey to their roster ahead of Saturday's clash with the Capitals. Another update on Krug's status will undoubtedly surface ahead of puck drop against the Devils.

Krug (upper body) will miss Boston's next two contests.

EDGE Analysis

The Bruins are extremely banged up right now, as David Backes (upper body), Jake DeBrusk (lower body), Karson Kuhlman (leg), Zachary Senyshyn (lower body) and Krug are all currently dealing with longer-term injuries. The 28-year-old blueliner will be reevaluated ahead of Tuesday's matchup with New Jersey. For now, Matt Grzelcyk will skate in Krug's spot on Boston's top power-play unit.

EDGE Analysis

This is a lingering effect of the injury Krug suffered during Sunday's loss to the Flyers. He was unable to practice Monday, and he'll look to get back into the lineup for Friday's road tilt against the Maple Leafs. The Bruins' power play takes a major hit with Krug out, as the 28-year-old has 11 of his 13 points with the man advantage. Charlie McAvoy is in line to quarterback the top power-play unit in Krug's place.

Krug (upper body) didn't practice Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Krug's absence from practice suggests that he's in danger of missing Tuesday night's game against the Panthers, a possibility supported by the fact that the Bruins have recalled blueliner Urho Vaakanainen on an emergency basis.

Krug left Sunday's game against the Flyers due to an upper-body injury and didn't return.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear how Krug picked up the injury, but he wasn't available for the overtime session. The American had just one shot in the game while playing 19:15 in the game, effectively ending his five-game point streak. Coach Bruce Cassidy said he'll know more Monday, so expect more news on Krug's availability for Tuesday's contest against Florida in the next 48 hours.

Krug scored a power-play goal to go with three shots, two PIM and two blocks in Friday's 4-2 loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Krug's goal was his first with the man advantage this season, but he's managed to pile up 10 power-play assists. He's also hit the scoresheet in five straight games, with two goals and three assists in that time. One of the most consistently productive defensemen in the NHL, Krug is gunning for a fourth straight 50-point campaign.

Krug collected a power-play helper in Tuesday's 5-4 loss to the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

All 10 of Krug's assists have come with the man advantage, making him one of the most valuable players in fantasy. With two goals to go along with his 10 helpers, Krug has been a reliable point producer in the early going of 2019-20. As long as he stays healthy, the 28-year-old should remain in your lineup.
