What's newBruins coach Marco Sturm expects James Hagens to miss a few weeks.

The Boston Bruins put forward James Hagens on injured reserve and recalled Michael Eyssimont from the Providence Bruins on Saturday. Boston listed Nov. 5 as the date of Hagens’ injury.

Coach Marco Sturm expects Hagens to miss a few weeks. Hagens took a cross-check to the midsection from Pittsburgh defenceman Samuel Girard in the third period Thursday and left the game. The 20-year-old has six goals and six assists in 17 games for Boston this season.

Sturm credited Eyssimont’s work in training camp and in Providence for earning the recall. The 30-year-old scored a natural hat trick Friday in Providence’s 5–4 win at Hamilton. His 13 goals in eight games lead the AHL, and the league named him its player of the month for October.
