The Bruins expect Seidenberg's recovery time will be six to eight months.
Seidenberg suffered the injury late in the third period of Friday night's 5-0 victory over the Ottawa Senators.
The 32-year-old blueliner had one goal and nine assists in 34 games for the Bruins this season. He was a +11 with ten penalty minutes.
Only Zdeno Chara (25:02) had more time-on-ice than Seidenberg (21:50) among Bruins defensemen in 2013-14.
