It comes with little surprise that Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk officially has been ruled out indefinitely with a concussion. Boychuk was absolutely crushed by Senators forward Chris Neil in Ottawa this past Saturday in a collision that left Neil shaken up as well. Despite the viciousness of the hit, it was a clean shoulder-to-chest impact.

The Bruins took a much-needed win in Ottawa on Saturday, but it did come at a price. The 5-3 victory wasn't a particularly physical affair for the first 40 minutes, but it took a nasty turn in the third period with a pair of huge hits delivered by the Senators on Bruins defensemen. Johnny Boychuk was on the wrong end of the more vicious, though clean, of those hits from Chris...
