The Boston Bruins defeated the Arizona Coyotes 6-3 yesterday, a win that put the team on a 2-0 start to this young season and new coach Jim Montgomery’s tenure. But while it was a convincing victory, it wasn’t without a cost. Bruins defenseman Brandon Carlo took a hit from Coyotes forward Liam O’Brien late in the first period, and he did not return. Now, it seems Carlo could be out for some time.
Per CapFriendly, Carlo has been placed on injured reserve. In a corresponding move, the Bruins announced that defenseman Daniel Renouf has been recalled from the AHL’s Providence Bruins. Renouf, 28, has 23 career NHL games to his name and spent most of last season with the Grand Rapids Griffins, save for four games spent as an injury fill-in for the Detroit Red Wings.
