David Krejci News

BOSTON, MA – Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today that the club has signed center David Krejci (pronounced “KRAY-chee”) to a three-year contract extension through the 2014-15 season. Per club policy, financial terms of the deal will not be disclosed.

Krejci was rewarded for his three-point effort last night with a contract extension. Expect the Czech native to continue centering the top line for a number of years.

Lucic-Horton-Krejci reunited.

After toiling on the third line for most of the season, Krejci moves back to the top line that helped carry the Bruins to the Stanley Cup. Despite scoring only one goal over his first six games this season, the Czech pivot posted 13 goals and 62 points over 75 games.

David Krejci, out with a core injury for the last three games, guessed he was 50-50 for tomorrow’s game against Toronto. Krejci practiced on the third line with Jordan Caron, Benoit Pouliot, and Rich Peverley. If Krejci can’t play, Peverley will most likely center the No. 3 line tomorrow.

Certainly good news for the team's number one center. Stay tuned for a further update...

Krejci did not practice with his normal line but his presence on the ice indicates he is actually day-to-day. Look for him to continue progressing with the chance that he could draw back in within the next week.

David Krejci, however, will not be traveling from Boston to Chicago. Krejci suffered a core injury in practice on Tuesday. Krejci remains day-to-day. Krejci will miss his second game of the season on Saturday.

Krejci will miss his second consecutive game, meaning Tyler Seguin probably stays on the top line. Last season Krejci scored 13 goals and 62 points through 75 games with the Bruins but has only one goal through the first three games. He remains day-to-day.

Julien says Krejci has an injury in the "core area" and is day-to-day.

Doesn't sound like a serious injury or like Krejci will miss too much time. Last season Krejci scored 13 goals and 62 points through 75 games with the Bruins but has only one goal through the first three games. Look for Tyler Seguin to fill in for Krejci on the top line with Jordan Caron finding his way back into the third line.

WILMINGTON, Mass. --- David Krejci was ruled out for Wednesday night's game against the Carolina Hurricanes after he suffered an undisclosed injury during a practice session at Ristuccia Arena, according to a statement relased by the team.

Still no word on Krejci's injury. Last season Krejci scored 13 goals and 62 points through 75 games with the Bruins but has only one goal through the first three games. Look for Tyler Seguin to fill in for Krejci on the top line with Jordan Caron finding his way back into the third line.

David Krejci left the ice a little early after one drill. He seemed to be favoring his left side. After practice, head coach Claude Julien said he had no more information on Krejci and would only classify the injury as a “body” injury. Julien said there was a chance Krejci would not travel with the team when the Bruins leave this afternoon for a two-game road trip that starts in Raleigh.

Krejci has a goal through the team's first three games, perhaps this injury was effecting his effectiveness in the offensive end. Expect further updates on this top liner.

Bostonbruins.com — Bruins forward David Krejci feels training camp has prepared him for the regular season, which starts Thursday night here at the TD Garden.

Krejci will start the season, and remain, the top line center for the Bruins. Last season he scored only 13 goals and finished the season with 62 points. Look him him to produce similarly to Joe Thornton if he can break the 20-goal plateau.

“It’s the same thing with [David] Krejci, so we pulled him off the ice this morning. It's the typical training camp things that happen. We're being more precautionary than taking any risks.”

Likely just a precautionary measure for the Bruins' top line center. The Czech native scored 13 goals and 62 points last season for the team. He figures to have similar value to any elite playmaker with another full, healthy season.
