The Boston Bruins have ruled out defenceman Torey Krug for the remainder of training camp due to a fractured jaw.Krug took a puck to the face in Tuesday's preseason win over the Detroit Red Wings, leaving him with a non-displaced fracture.

The team said he would be re-evaluated in three weeks. The Bruins open their regular season on Oct. 5 against the Nashville Predators.
Krug, 26, scored eight goals and posted 43 assists in 81 games with the Bruins last season while logging 21:36 of ice time per contest. He missed the playoffs last season due to a lower-body injury.
Undrafted in the NHL, Krug has appeared in 319 games over the past four seasons, posting 38 goals and 136 points.
The team also announced forward Matt Beleskey has been ruled day-to-day with a foot contusion sustained in the team's Sept. 18 preseason game in Quebec City.

Yikes - not great, although in some cases isn't this something that can be played through, like with a special helmet? Still thought, bad break - pun intended.

Any updates, need to decide whether to keep by tonite. Think he will miss more than 2 weeks of regular season?

Last I read was about 3 weeks. I figure he should be good to go around the 14th of October. Don't think he will miss much time more than that. He dropped in the rankings im doing for my upcoming drafts but only by a couple spots

		GP	G	A	PTS
14	Alex Pietrangelo (STL)	80	12	36	48
15	Drew Doughty (LAK)	82	13	33	46
16	Torey Krug (BOS) injured	75	7	39	46
17	Shayne Gostisbehere (PHI)	77	10	35	45
18	Zach Werenski (CBJ)	82	12	33	45

I think he will now become a great value pick.
