Krug (undisclosed) will play in Monday night's road game against the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Krug was forced out of Saturday's Game 2 win over Toronto after absorbing a hard check from Jake Muzzin that left him wobbly and dazed. Fortunately, the mobile blueliner recovered in short order and will be able to handle his usual duties Monday, which include quarterbacking the Bruins' power play.

Krug (undisclosed) was paired with Brandon Carlo during Monday's morning skate.
EDGE Analysis
Krug, who didn't return to Saturday's game against Toronto after leaving in the second period, thus appears in line to play Monday night, a probable outcome that should soon be confirmed, either way, by coach Bruce Cassidy.

Krug (undisclosed) did not return to Saturday's Game 2 after leaving in the second period following a hard hit by Toronto's Jake Muzzin.
EDGE Analysis
Krug had tried to stand, but he looked more like Bambi on ice than an NHL defender. He had only played in five games at the end of the season following his last concussion. Krug is a valuable part of the Boston blue line; his loss will be significant. Hopefully there is an update on his health Sunday.

Krug tallied an assist on Thursday, as the Bruins lost 4-1 in Game 1 to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Krug's helper was on the man-advantage 9:31 into the first period -- the only goal his team could muster on 38 shots. The Bruins' power play showed its two-faced nature in Game 1, as they converted on the first opportunity before letting up a shorthanded goal on their second. During the regular season, the B's were third in the league in power play goals for (65) but tied for first in shorthanded goal allowed (15).

Krug notched two assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
The blueliner now has five points, all helpers, in four games since returning to action from a concussion. Krug won't reach the career-high 59 points he piled up last season due to the time he's missed to injuries, but his 47 assists in only 63 games is a new personal best.

Krug (concussion) is in line to play Wednesday night against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
With Krug set to return to action and both Matt Grzelcyk (arm) and Kevan Miller (upper body) looking good for this weekend, the Bruins will welcome back reinforcements, while John Moore is now week-to-week with an upper body injury. Assuming no unexpected pre-game setbacks, Krug -- who has logged 48 points in 59 games to date -- belongs back in fantasy lineups Wednesday.

Krug (concussion) won't play in Monday's game versus the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Krug practiced without contact Sunday so he was considered a long shot to play, and coach Bruce Cassidy has officially ruled him out. He'll now have extra rest to get ready for Wednesdays home game versus the Rangers, and the Bruins won't rush him back after clinching playoffs with a win over the Panthers on Saturday.

Krug (concussion) didn't participate in contact drills during Sunday's practice, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the last five games, Krug's next chance to get into the lineup will be Monday versus the Lightning. However, he'll need to get some contact before that's possible, so his availability depends on working in an unrestricted fashion during Monday's morning skate -- and that may not even be enough.

Krug (concussion) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
He has missed the last four games but started skating on his own Thursday. Krug isn't quite ready yet, but coach Bruce Cassidy hopes he'll be able to go Monday versus the Lightning. The team has hung on without him with a 3-1 record and 1.5 GAA, but his two-way abilities will be necessary for a playoff run.
