Krejci, who missed Monday's game against the Penguins, is dealing with a groin pull, according to the Boston Herald.

Analysis:

While coach coach Claude Julien didn't offer specifics with regard to Krejci's injury, he did acknowledge that "we've taken a step back again," though he added that "from everything I'm being told, it's not something we're going to have to manage all year." The center's status for Friday's game against the Jets thus remains cloudy and until more information is available, we'll consider Krejci day-to-day.
