BOSTON -- Patrice Bergeron is likely to play for the Boston Bruins in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference First Round against the Toronto Maple Leafs at TD Garden on Saturday (8 p.m. ET; NBC, CBC, SN, TVAS).
Bergeron missed Game 4, a 3-1 win by the Bruins, at Air Canada Centre in Toronto on Thursday with an upper-body injury and was listed as day to day. But the 32-year-old center took part in the morning skate at Warrior Ice Arena on Saturday, taking his usual spot between Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak on the top line, and in his regular spot on the first power-play unit, all indications that he will play in Game 5.
