Krug assisted on Brad Marchand's overtime winner Sunday in a 2-1 triumph over host Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
An undisclosed issue cost Krug a pair of games last week, but he managed to skate for 21:17 in this latest contest, effectively topping his season average for playing time. The Michigan native is an elite offensive producer, as he's up to 13 goals and 40 assists through 68 games this season.

Krug (undisclosed) will be in the lineup versus Minnesota on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Before having to nurse his injury Krug was riding a hot streak, notching 13 points in 10 games, and extending his season total to 52 (13 goals, 39 assists) in 67 games -- a new career high in points. Krug should resume his role on the first power-play unit, and with Zdeno Chara (upper body) and Charlie McAvoy (lower body) still sidelined, he figures to slide into the first pairing as well.

Krug (undisclosed) took part in morning rushes Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Now, this doesn't guarantee that he will play against the Wild. However, it's certainly a good sign for his availability, especially since he worked with the top power-play unit during practice as well. If you're hoping to get Krug in your lineup, you are probably going to be in luck, but be sure to keep an eye out for news right before the game starts Sunday night just in case.

Krug (undisclosed) won't play Friday against the Stars, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bruins are littered with injuries right now, including rookie Charlie McAvoy (lower body) and veteran Zdeno Chara (upper body) on the blue line. Krug has notched a career-best 52 points this season, so the Bruins hope he can return for Sunday's game against the Wild.

Krug (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Friday night's game against the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Krug wasn't listed as a participant in the Bruins' morning line rushes, but perhaps he'll progress to the point where he could be return to the lineup Friday night after being scratched in advance of Wednesday's contest versus the Blues. With both Charlie McAvoy (knee) and Zdeno Chara (upper body) still sidelined, the Bruins could certainly use Krug on Friday. If he suits up, he'd merit fantasy lineup attention, given that he's racked up 52 points in 67 games to date, including four helpers over his last two outings.

Krug will miss Wednesday's tilt versus the Blues with an upper-body injury and has been labeled day-to-day moving forward.
EDGE Analysis
News on Krug's absence didn't surface the Bruins took the ice for pregame warmups and he wasn't among his teammates. He did miss practice Tuesday but took part in morning skate, suggesting he was ready to roll for the evening. Apparently, that's not the case, but a day-to-day designation indicates he could return for the second game of the team's four-game road trip Friday against the Stars. Paul Postma draws into Wednesday's lineup in his place and could be added to the power play as well.

Krug will not draw into Wednesday's game against the Blues for an undisclosed reason, Joe McDonald of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Krug left practice early Tuesday, according to Fluto Shinzawa of The Boston Globe. However, he was present at morning skate Wednesday, suggesting everything should be fine heading into the evening's matchup against the Blues. It appears things have turned on that front, as Krug will instead skip the affair, leaving Paul Postma to draw in for the Bruins. The team should provide additional information on Krug's status prior to his next opportunity to draw in Friday against the Stars.

Krug (undisclosed) set up all three Boston goals in a 3-0 win over Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Krug tied his career mark in points (51) with the helpers. But he has done it in just 66 games -- last year, it took 81 games. Krug's value to the Bruins and fantasy owners continues to grow each season. He's now tied for sixth i overall among NHL defenders.

Krug (undisclosed) will suit up agains the Panthers on Thursday, Kevin Dupont of the Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Krug received X-rays after Tuesday's 6-4 victory over Carolina that apparently didn't show anything serious. The 26-year-old blueliner has been vital to Boston's success this season and is approaching a career-high in points. Through 64 games, Krug has tallied 13 goals and 48 points, just shy of his career-highs of 14 and 51, respectively. Insert him in to all fantasy lineups moving forward.

Krug (undisclosed injury) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's game against the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Bruce Cassidy has already ruled Zdeno Chara out for the next two games, but Krug has a shot to suit up Thursday after being forced out of Tuesday's contest against Carolina. If the mobile blueliner is unable to play, however, Paul Postma would slot into the B's lineup. Krug hasn't notched a point in his last two outings, but he's in the midst of a fantasy-friendly campaign in which he's logged 13 goals and 48 points over the course of 64 tilts.
