Krug, Krejci cleared to participate in Bruins camp
Some key members of the Boston Bruins have been given the green light.
Defenseman Torey Krug and centerman David Krejci have been cleared to participate in the club's training camp, which opens Friday.
"Both are fully good to go, to be integrated into practice doing drills," general manager Don Sweeney said Thursday.
"We'll call it a modified contact situation that we can control a little bit before they get fully ramped up, and then we'll just monitor their progress and how they're feeling throughout, and game by game as to whether or not they play."
Krug underwent shoulder surgery in April, while Krejci underwent an operation on his left hip.
Both players are on track with their recovery schedules, and are aiming to be in the lineup opening night in Columbus.
