The Boston Bruins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins] took the ice after yesterday's off day, but one member of the Bruins did not skate on Thursday. Joonas Korpisalo [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/community/latest-news/where-bleacher-report-ranks-bruins-goaltending], who played Tuesday's entire game against the New York Rangers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-york-rangers], did not skate with either group on Thursday morning. In his 27 games last year, Korpisalo posted an 11-10-3 record with an .893 save percentage and a 2.90 goals against average. Korpisalo struggled at times throughout last season, but came into camp with the inside track to win the backup job over Michael DiPietro [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/latest-news/5-bruins-ready-to-break-out-right-now], the 2024-25 Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Award Winner (AHL Vezina). There's no word at this time on why Korpisalo is absent.
