It sure doesn't sound like Marc Savard will be returning anytime soon...
"Claude Julien told ESPN Boston: "He's behind by at least a month, month and a half, already. We'll have to be patient and give him a chance to come back. Right now, I don't think there's any reason why we should push this guy to get back, more than we should be helping him get back (ESPN)."
Most reports suggest that Savard is eyeing a return sometime in December/January. You will most likely see the Bruins put Savard on the LTIR (long-term IR), so that his salary doesn't count against the cap until he returns. The reason for that is when Marco Sturm returns he will put the Bruins over the cap. Obviously, when everyone is healthy the Bruins are going to have to make a move to shed some cap space, but for now they have plenty of time to fill out their roster.
