The collision occurred late in the third period, and Krejci didn't take a shift in overtime. Cassidy added he's not in concussion protocol.

Krejci was a force for the Bruins in Round 1 against the Toronto Maple Leafs, collecting two goals and three assists in seven games while anchoring the club's second line. The Czech is a proven playoff performer, having led the postseason in points twice in his career.
