As the Boston Bruins try to keep their season alive today, two big storylines involving the Bruins players. Brad Marchand has been warned by the NHL to stop licking opponents and defenseman Torey Krug is out of the lineup with an ankle injury.

Marchand has taken heavy criticism for licking Ryan Callahan in the face in game four on Friday night. He did the same thing in the Toronto series. Now the NHL has said 'stop it'.

Meanwhile, the Bruins team doctor has announced that Torey Krug is out for the remainder series. He went hard into the boards during the third period Friday night and did not return.

Krug had three goals and nine assists in the playoffs - the top scoring defenseman and fourth leading points man on the team.

Today's game is in Tampa Bay with the Lightning leading the best-of-seven series 3-1.
