The Boston Bruins lost yet another game on Saturday. The team was lifeless and didn’t show up at all (besides Jaroslav Halak). But Boston hasn’t had the best of luck either.

Boston has had to deal with some major injuries. Players such as Tuukka Rask and Brandon Carlo have been forced to miss some time.

Also, some players have been ridiculously cold. They are unable to score or just have the worst puck luck.

In recent weeks we have seen some Bruins players have some truly terrible luck. Here are the three that stand out the most.

Boston Bruins: 3 players with the worst luck – No.3: Kevan Miller

So far in 2021, Kevan Miller was having a quality season. He was making an effect on each and every game with his physical play.

Especially considering how long Miller had been out of commission he was doing rather well. He was a great addition to Boston’s blueline.

But then Miller had his knee issues flared up. He has yet to return to the lineup since February 18th.

This should really concern Bruins fans. Miller is already injury-prone, so there’s no telling when he could come back. Honestly, the best thing for the Bruins and MIller would be to rest the defenseman as much as possible.

This is already a weird regular season with the Bruins only facing a select number of teams. They shouldn’t risk him coming back when it’s almost guaranteed that Boston will make the playoffs.

But Miller’s luck has just been awful when it comes to staying healthy. When he starts to play well he just always ends up getting injured.

Hopefully, whenever he is healthy enough he will return to the ice and perform just as he was at the beginning of the season. Boston sure could use him right now.
