Boston Bruins rookie forward James Hagens suffered an injury during a 6-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. Hagens exited the game after receiving a cross-check to his lower back from Samuel Girard in the neutral zone, which left him struggling to leave the ice. He did not return, and the Bruins have not yet released an update on his status.
The 19-year-old forward has enjoyed a strong start to the 2026-27 season, tallying six goals and 12 points in 16 games. Playing on a third line alongside Casey Mittelstadt and Elias Lindholm under head coach Marco Sturm, Hagens has emerged as one of the league's top-scoring rookies while contributing heavily defensively.
