Bruins' Patrice Bergeron: Could return Thursday

Bergeron (lower body) centered Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak at practice Wednesday.

Analysis:

Bergeron indicated that he's feeling good at this stage, though he's still taking things day-by-day. For his part, coach Claude Julien noted that the Bruins believe that Bergeron is on track to play Thursday against New Jersey, a potential outcome that could be solidified, one way or the other, after the B's pre-game skate.
