    Default Rene Bourque is concussed

    The Habs just revealed that bourque is concussed. He did not play for the last 2 Habsd games, the tam officially saying that he had the flu.

    He was playing good hockey so far along Plekanec and Gionta.

    If I recall it went from an eye injury to the flu to a concussion which is weird. I guess they came to their conclusion when Visine and Nyquil didn't work.

    Bourque would probably take Gabriel Dumont's spot on the line with Eller and Galchenyuk. No reason to break the other two lines.

    Exactly, and it will be interesting to see where Prust fits in when he'll be back as well. With everyone healthy, is he on the 4th line? Not much choice, when you look at the top 9. But that will give a lot of latitude to Therrien in games. He will be able to bench whoever is not having a good game.

    Of course, that implies that everyone is healthy, which is not the case for now...

    Prust can do the 4th line role with PK minutes and maybe some moving around in the lineup depending on the situation. He has been playing on different lines all the time anyway.
