The Boston Bruins will be without the services of their two most veteran defencemen when they visit the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday, as both Zdeno Chara and John-Michael Liles did not make the trip with the rest of the team.
Chara, 39, has missed the Bruins’ last three games with an upper-body injury, while Liles, 36, suffered an upper-body injury during Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning after a scary fall into the end boards.
The Bruins (12-10-0) will be in tough against the Flyers (10-10-3) with two of their top 4 defenders sidelined.
