However, unfortunately for one former Boston Bruins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins] forward, they will not be able to return to action any time soon. While speaking to reporters, including The Hockey News' David Dwork, Florida Panthers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers] general manager Bill Zito shared that former Bruins forward Tomas Nosek suffered an injury during off-season training and will be out for multiple months. Nosek became a mainstay on the Panthers' fourth line this past season, so he is a player who the Panthers will miss while he is out. His injury also likely played a role in the Panthers inviting bottom-six forwards Tyler Motte and Noah Gregor to training camp on professional tryouts (PTOs). Nosek just played his first season with the Panthers during the 2024-25 campaign. In 59 games with the Panthers on the year, he recorded one goal, eight assists, 83 hits, and a plus-4 rating. He also recorded three assists and a plus-4 rating in 16 playoff games for the Panthers this spring. Nosek joined the Bruins on a two-year, $3.5 million contract during the 2021 NHL off-season. In two seasons with the Bruins, the 33-year-old forward recorded 10 goals, 25 assists, 35 points, and 154 hits in 141 games.
