BOSTON — Bruins coach Marco Sturm said he didn’t know the results of Elias Lindholm ’s trip to the doctor on Thursday and didn’t have an update on Pavel Zacha yet.
Lindholm left Tuesday’s win over the Nashville Predators and Zacha didn’t finish Thursday’s win over the Flyers. Both players suffered upper-body injuriesl leaving Boston without its top two centers.

The Bruins will practice in Boston on Friday before heading to Tampa to face the Lightning in the Stadium Series game on Sunday. They’ll stay in Florida to play the Panthers on Wednesday in their final game before the Olympic break.
If both Zacha and Lindholm are out, the Bruins would likely summon another forward for the trip. Boston called up Matt Poitras , who centered the third line to open the game against the Flyers, on Thursday.
The Bruins could also move Marat Khustnutdinov to center between David Pastrnak and Morgan Geekie and return Alex Steeves , who has sat out the last two games, to the lineup.
