"The Bruins' D corps took a hit earlier this week, as Boston announced Thursday night that defenseman Jordan Harris will be on the shelf for months. In a statement released by Bruins' head team physician Dr. Peter Asnis, Harris suffered a right ankle fracture during Boston's loss to the Florida Panthers on Oct. 21 - undergoing a successful open reduction and internal fixation procedure at Mass General Brigham on Monday. Harris' expected recovery timeline is two months."
"Harris - who signed a one-year contract with Boston on the first day of free agency this summer - appeared in five games so far this season with the Bruins. He averaged 15:38 of ice time per game during that stretch, scoring a goal and adding an assist. With Harris sidelined, the Bruins will likely turn to Providence for additional depth on the blue line."
