Krejci sustained the injury when he collided with St. Louis Blues forward Alexander Steen on Friday.

He missed Sunday's game against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Krejci has missed 21 games through injury this season, but his latest one comes at an inopportune time for the Bruins, with the playoffs starting in mid-April.
