Elias Lindholm - NHL News & Rumors

Off injured reserve Lindholm (upper body) was taken off injured reserve, per the NHL media site. He's expected to play for Team Sweden against Italy on Wednesday at the 2026 Winter Games.

Impact Lindholm missed Boston's final three games before the Olympic break due to the injury. He has 11 goals and 37 points in 44 outings this campaign. After he's done playing for Sweden, he should make his return with the Bruins against Columbus on Feb. 26.

Placed on injured reserve Lindholm (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site reports.

Impact Lindholm suffered an upper-body injury during last Tuesday's game against Nashville, and he was already ruled out for this Wednesday's matchup against the Panthers. While he'll technically be eligible to return for Thursday's game against the Blue Jackets, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Bruins hold him out ahead of the Olympic break. Lindholm is slated to play for Sweden during the upcoming Olympics, but it's not yet clear whether his injury will impact his availability.

Set to miss next two games Lindholm (upper body) won't travel with the Bruins for their two-game swing through Florida, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports Friday.

Impact Lindholm will not only miss the Stadium Series game in Tampa, but this raises doubts about whether he will be healthy enough to join Team Sweden in Milan for the 2026 Winter Olympics. With Pavel Zacha (upper body) also not making the trip, the Bruins will likely have to deploy Fraser Minten and either Casey Mittelstadt or Matthew Poitras as their top two centers.

Lindholm will be unavailable for at least one game, but he's slated to visit with doctors Thursday, which could provide a better idea of his status with just under a week remaining before the Olympic break.
