Further to the announcement that Rich Peverley had suffered an injury, it has been announced that he will be sidelined for four to six weeks.

Peverley took a knee-on-knee collision in Wednesday’s game against Montreal. He suffered knee ligament damage, but the Bruins are hopeful that he will be back for a few games before the playoff start.

Peverley has 38 points in 49 games so far this season.
