The Bruins announced Tuesday morning that first-line right wing Nathan Horton is out for the remainder of the Stanley Cup finals due to a severe concussion. It was pretty obvious the second he hit the ice that he was going to be out for the rest of this series. Horton is a key part of the Bruins offense. Last night when I saw the hit I thought "fuck, that's it the Bruins are toast". This morning I feel a bit different. Once Horton went down the Bruins got some life. The lines were played with a bit, and this team seems to be out for blood. The question now is how long this energy boost will last.
It was a dirty hit, and they had a hearing at 11am today with the NHL. We will let you know when we hear the punishment for Rome.
With Horton out Seguin should be back on the active roster.
***UPDATE***
Allen Rome is suspended gets a 4 game suspension, which is the rest of the Finals and is exactly what he should get for the dirty hit the NHL is trying to get rid of.
