The Boston Bruins lost defenseman Torey Krug for at least the rest of Saturday night’s game against the Buffalo Sabres.
Beyond that, there isn’t a whole lot of information, as the Bruins didn’t even reveal if Krug is suffering from a lower or upper-body injury. Naturally, that means there’s no word regarding how serious this issue is (beyond sidelining him for the night).
It’s not clear how Krug was hurt, although it may have happened midway through the first period.
Krug hasn't been on the ice since the 12:04 mark in the first period.

So far, it sounds like Krug’s absence may mean a larger workload for Zdeno Chara.
Zdeno Chara replaces Torey Krug on the Bruins top power play unit. That's a big time downgrade in mobility at the point on league's best PP
