Seguin's hat trick leads Stars over the Bruins

Dallas Stars @ Boston Bruins game recap video, on November 3, 2015.

Yes the Dallas Stars beat the Bruins 5-3 last night and ex-Bruin Tyler Seguin had a hat trick against his former team, but the biggest (and saddest) news is that Bruins Chris Kelly went down early in the first period and had to be helped off the ice with an apparent leg/or knee injury. Later during the game, Bruins GM Don Sweeney made a statement, that Chris Kelly sustained a left femur fracture and was transported to Mass General Hospital. Kelly will be undergoing surgery Wednesday (today) and his expected recovery time is between six to eight months.

We hope the surgery goes good and Kelly is able to rehab and possibly re-join the Bruins this season/playoffs. Kelly is an unrestricted free agent after this season and with his price tag ($3M), I doubt the Bruins would bring him back unless it's for a lot less, considering the young players that they have in Providence. It would be sad if this was the last moment Kelly had while wearing the black and gold.
