David Krejci Injury Update (UPDATED)

David Krejci was able to get back on the ice for the first time since his "core" injury. Krejci was able to participate in the morning skate, and it sounds like he will be back Saturday against San Jose, if not tomorrow against Toronto.

The Bruins need offense right now there is no getting around that. I do like Seguin skating with guys like Horton and Lucic, because they are bangers (when they are playing like they should) and that is the kind of guys that can cause chaos in front of the net and open the ice up for Seguin.

I didn't see the game last night, and from the sound of it I am kind of glad, but I did read the Bruins shook up their lines. Whatever it takes to breathe a little life into this team is probably a good idea. I am hoping that all this fighting last night got this team fired up. We have seen it before that the Bruins play better angry.

My 2 cents on the lines (when healthy), which mean little to nothing, but makes sense to me are...

Lucic - Krejci - Peverley
Marchand - Bergeron - Seguin
Pouliot - Kelly - Horton

I am a big Horton fan, but he has looked like shit. I like Peverley on that first line to add some speed with Lucic, and some energy. Lucic I feel like at times seems out of it, and almost bored. Sometimes a fiery guy like Peverley can breathe life into a player like that. Little worried about the size on the 2nd line, but Marchand plays a lot bigger then his actual size, and Seguin/Bergeron are such playmakers they can make Marchand a 30 goal scorer.

Like I said, that's just my idea.

***UPDATE***

Here are the lines from today's practice...

Milan Lucic-Chris Kelly-Tyler Seguin
Brad Marchand-Patrice Bergeron-Nathan Horton
Jordan Caron-David Krejci/Rich Peverley-Benoit Pouliot
Daniel Paille-Gregory Campbell-Shawn Thornton

Yea, it's a lot different then mine, but I do like it. I think Julien realizes that Horton is playing like shit, since he dropped him to the 2nd line. Like I talked about before I like that Seguin/Lucic combo, because when Lucic is playing like he should he can cause problems for teams in front of the net.

Anyways, interesting to see they are changing it up, but I think it's a good idea.
