Bruins' David Krejci: Drops out of World Cup

Krejci (hip) will not participate in the World Cup of Hockey for the Czech Republic, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.

Analysis:

Krejci only began skating towards the latter half of August, so it should come as no surprise that he won't be ready to return to action in time for the World Cup. Arguably the best player named to the Czech squad, this is certainly a setback in their already slim chances of winning the tournament. It remains unclear what, if any, impact this will have on the center's availability for the start of the upcoming campaign, meaning fantasy owners will want to continue monitoring this situation throughout the preseason.
