Krug (concussion) will skate on his own Thursday morning.
EDGE Analysis
Krug will miss Thursday's game against New Jersey, but he is making some progress as Saturday's game against the Panthers approaches. The same applies to Kevan Miller (upper body) and Matt Grzelcyk (arm), which means that the Bruins' blue line corps could be intact soon and in time for the team's regular-season stretch run, barring any new injuries to the unit.

Head coach Bruce Cassidy said Monday that Krug (concussion) will accompany the team on its upcoming four-game road trip.
EDGE Analysis
Krug has missed the last two games dealing with a concussion, and this news suggests he could return in the next four games. Cassidy also said Krug is feeling "better", which helps his chances for an earlier return. The 27-year-old has been outstanding this campaign, racking up 48 points in 59 games.

Krug is dealing with a concussion that will prevent him from playing Saturday against the Blue Jackets, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The mobile point-packing defenseman noted Wednesday that he wasn't feeling well, so the Bruins held him out Thursday against the Jets, and now it's unfortunately been determined that he's concussed. Boston's trainers are also dealing with upper-body injuries to Kevan Miller and Matt Grzelcyk, which leaves the team rather thin on the blue line -- at least in terms of who might be able to make an impact in the fantasy realm.

Krug (upper body) won't play Thursday against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Bruce Cassidy revealed Wednesday that Krug is "not feeling great today," while adding that the Bruins' power-play QB is day-to-day beyond Thursday's contest. The 27-year-old has been a prime fantasy asset this season, with 48 points in 59 games to date, but he is coming off a forgettable minus-5 effort in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Blue Jackets. With Krug sidelined, Connor Clifton has been recalled from AHL Providence.

Krug failed to score a point and registered a minus-5 rating in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
The Bruins' current road trip has been a nightmare for the blueliner so far -- in just two games, both Boston losses, he's gone from a plus-5 to a minus-3 on the season. Krug is only two points shy of his third straight 50-point campaign, but with so much of his production coming on the power play -- he's collected a career-high 29 points (two goals, 27 helpers) with the man advantage -- he remains a ratings risk.

Krug set up two goals Thursday in a 4-1 win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Krug has 40 helpers and 46 points overall this season, and he's done it in 53 games. He sits 10th in the NHL in scoring from the blue line, but is tied with Erik Karlsson for seventh in points per games played. Krug is on pace to flirt with 60 points this season. Use him well.

Krug (lower body) is projected to skate on a defensive pairing with Brandon Carlo in Tuesday night's game against the Sharks, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Krug was held out of the overtime period of Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Blues, but the mobile blueliner will remain in the Boston lineup Tuesday. With six goals and 43 points in 51 games to date, Krug maintains plenty of fantasy utility, in large part due to his power-play prowess.

Krug (lower body) is "fine" according to head coach Bruce Cassidy, Conor Ryan of the Boston Sports Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Krug was held out of overtime in Boston's last game to be on the safe side, but it seems like the defenseman isn't going to miss any additional time. Fantasy owners will breathe a sigh of relief over that. The 27-year-old has 43 points in 51 games, including a whopping 26 with the extra man.

Krug was held out of the overtime period during Saturday's 2-1 loss in St. Louis after suffering a lower-body injury.
EDGE Analysis
Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy doesn't believe the injury is serious, but a further update on his condition can be expected ahead of Boston's next contest, Tuesday against the Sharks. Krug finished Saturday's game with an assist, two penalty minutes, three shots on goal, and three hits in 17:31 of time on ice.
