Despite reports to the contrary, Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk will not play in Game 5 tonight at TD Garden. In order to return to the line-up, he needs clearance from the doctor but wasn’t able to get the OK after his latest testing.

The third-pair D-man had been a stud on both ends of the ice all playoffs until he was concussed by an Oskar Sundqvist boarding in Game 2.
