Boston Bruins centre David Krejci will miss his second straight game on Saturday with an upper-body injury.

Bruins interim head coach Bruce Cassidy confirmed the news Friday and added defenceman Colin Miller is also unlikely to play.

Krejci played in all 82 regular season games but was unable to play in Game 1 against the Ottawa Senators Wednesday night.

He scored 23 goals and 31 assists during the regular season. 

Joe Morrow is expected to draw in for Miller in the Bruins' third pairing. Morrow dressed in 17 games during the regular season for the Penguins, but last played with the team on Jan. 22.
