The Boston Bruins could be getting their first-line center back on Sunday. According to multiple reports, Patrice Bergeron is a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Wild, and will fly out to meet the team there.

Bergeron has missed around the past month with a fractured foot. He first injured his foot on Feb. 24th against the Toronto Maple Leafs, though he played the next night against the Buffalo Sabres.

Ahead of his injury, Bergeron was being discussed as a potential MVP candidate. On top of his usual stellar defense, Bergeron had 27 goals and 27 assists on the season. He was a key contributor to the Bruins' top line, though Riley Nash has performed well in that spot in Bergeron's absence.

The Bruins have nine games left in the season, and they'll likely need Bergeron to be playing at the top of his game if they're going to make a deep playoff run.
