They do not want to risk him being out longer-term. If the Bruins were to lose Bergeron for a longer period of time, they would surely feel it. Bergeron is one of the best two-way centres of his generation, even all-time. The Bruins rely a lot on Bergeron and are hoping he can make his return to the lineup quickly.<\/p>\n<p>The Bruins will look to keep their hot streak going. They have won three of their last five games and will look to keep that going into the future. The Atlantic Division is heating up and they will hope to continue their winning ways so they can keep their grip on first in the division.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"KTK_FAYOR3JRMcoOXFlUiQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.ca\/detail\/1185910050\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'KTK_FAYOR3JRMcoOXFlUiQ',sig:'_QtEB0lmjx_bR1jVKZuqWEP3rEsEB5-Ux2U2BiDz_I4=',w:'594px',h:'446px',items:'1185910050',caption: true ,tld:'ca',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Boston Bruins announced that centre Patrice Bergeron is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
