With multiple reports indicating Sunday that Bruins center Marc Savard will be shut down for the rest of the season, the team called a press conference for Monday at 2 p.m. at TD Garden. Present at the press conference will be the center, general manager Peter Chiarelli, and head team physician Dr. Peter Asnis.

Savard suffered the fourth concussion of his career on Jan. 22 when he took a hit in the corner from Avalanche defenseman Matt Hunwick and has been out since. The 33-year-old, who missed the first 23 games of the season with post-concussion syndrome, had 10 points (2 G, 8 A) and a team-worst minus-7 rating in 25 games with the Bruins this season.

    I generally believe in irony and this is unfortunate. Bettman all I can say You Reap What You Sow. The Comish worried so much about getting “the brutality of fighting” out of the game, that measures to do that has in part led to this. He should have focused more on giving stiffer penalties and fines on cheap shots, then who started what altercation. If it is in the last 5 minutes of the game, are you serious. I think this a lot worse than we are being told. Good Job on the instigator penalty, maybe you have should have spent the time getting rid of the dirty play than now has taken how many stars out of your league.
