This Bruins defender will be sidelined for a good chunk of time.
Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery shared with reporters that Andrew Peeke will be out week-to-week due to an upper-body injury.
Peeke, 26, was injured in the Bruins' most recent matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs after receiving a hard hit from Max Pacioretty. He left the game following the hit.
This is certainly rough news for the Bruins, as Peeke is a solid part of their defense. However, they will now need to adjust without Peeke in their lineup for at least the next few weeks.
Peeke has played in 13 games this season with the Bruins, where he has two assists, 18 hits, and a minus-2 rating.
