Bergeron was seen leaving the locker room following Saturday night's loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs in a walking boot due to an apparent shot block taken during the course of the game.
The Bruins have yet to provide an official update on Begeron's status, but Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos is reporting the walking boot was merely a precaution, and that Bergeron's injury is not considered serious.
Bergeron is in the midst of another sensational season for Boston, racking up 27 goals and 27 assists.
Rick Nash will waste no time donning his new colors, as he'll join the Boston Bruins for Sunday's clash with the Buffalo Sabres, the team announced shortly after acquiring him via trade.
The Bruins nabbed Nash from the New York Rangers in a blockbuster deal early Sunday morning, sending Ryan Spooner, Matt Beleskey, prospect Ryan Lindgren, and two draft picks - a first in 2018 and a seventh in 2019 - to Broadway in exchange for the veteran winger.
Nash was in his sixth season with the Rangers. In 60 games so far in 2017-18, he's recorded 18 goals and 10 assists.
However, it is now being reported New York will be retaining 50 percent of Nash's hefty $7.8-million cap hit, the maximum amount allowed, per McKenzie.
Nash's name has been heavily involved in trade rumors over the past couple months, with talks intensifying in recent days. The addition of a player of Nash's caliber is most definitely a coup for a Bruins club looking to take a serious run at the Cup.
With no current NHL players competing at PyeongChang, the men's hockey tournament saw a wide-open field, and in the end, there was more than just medals on the line.
While the potential of bringing home gold certainly trumps all, playing on potentially the biggest stage at the premiere sporting event has allowed many players to showcase their talents and put the NHL on notice.
Here are five players who, while previously having name recognition, really elevated their NHL stock at PyeongChang.
Ilya Kovalchuk
The return of Kovalchuk to the NHL appears to be almost a certainty at this point. The Russian forward has previously stated his desire to make the move back to the NHL and there were even talks about a potential return before this season, though such a move evidently never panned out.
If there were any doubts about whether Kovalchuk still had what it takes to keep pace in the NHL, his play in PyeongChang should have helped put those thoughts to rest.
In six games, Kovalchuk scored five goals and added two assists in the Olympic Athletes from Russia's gold medal triumph. He can still shoot the puck and would be a boost to any offense.
Ryan Donato
The Americans may have come up short of a podium finish in PyeongChang, but one player who certainly did his part was Donato.
The 2014 second-round pick of the Boston Bruins led the team with five goals and six points in five games. He's currently playing his third year at Harvard and is having a stellar campaign with 22 goals and 33 points in 24 games.
Donato will presumably play one more year at Harvard, after which he could create a bidding war if he decides not to sign with the Bruins.
Kirill Kaprizov
Kaprizov really sparked the interest of many after he put up nine goals and 12 points as the captain of Russia at the 2017 World Junior Hockey Championship.
He surprised many after the tournament when he announced he would play the next three years in the KHL, and has flourished while playing for CSKA Moscow this season with 15 goals and 40 points in 46 games.
While playing for OAR in PyeongChang, he has put up an impressive nine points in six games, including a hat trick against Slovenia and the gold medal-winning goal in overtime against Germany.
Kaprizov was a fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Wild in 2015 and you can bet the team is keeping a close eye on him.
Linus Omark
Omark's most memorable moment in the NHL was when he pulled off this impressive shootout goal against the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2010.
However, there were very few shining moments after that and he eventually took his talents to the KHL for the 2014-15 season. He's since rekindled his scoring prowess and has now put up three consecutive 50-point seasons since 2016.
While playing for his native Sweden at PyeongChang, the 31-year-old didn't find the back of the net but was still dangerous, setting up seven goals in four games.
Tolvanen has been a revelation, putting up 17 goals and 34 points in the KHL, but really put on a show while playing for Finland in PyeongChang. In five games, he notched three goals and a tournament-leading nine points while showing off his remarkable release.
With the trade deadline on Monday, it seems Tolvanen could very well be the team's biggest late-season addition.
GANGNEUNG, South Korea (AP) The Russians triumphed in the no-NHL tournament where they were favored, winning the men's hockey gold medal at a Winter Olympics where they couldn't even be called Team Russia, use their colors or celebrate while listening to their anthem.
Kirill Kaprizov scored the game-winner as ''Team Olympic Athlete From Russia'' came back to beat underdog Germany 4-3 in overtime Sunday in an instant classic that saved a men's tournament lacking buzz not only in South Korea but back in North America, where the NHL season went on during the games for the first time since 1994.
It's the first Russian gold medal in hockey since 1992 in Albertville when the team also played under a neutral flag as the Community of Independent States. Russian flags - the team barred from using them by IOC sanctions for state-sponsored doping - hung behind the bench as the team awaited their gold medals.
Constantly saying it doesn't matter that they had to wear nondescript red and white uniforms that lacked the Russian Coat of Arms, players gave the Russians their second gold and 17th total medal of the Olympics.
This one was expected all along.
Stocked with former NHL players - Pavel Datsyuk, Ilya Kovalchuk, Slava Voynov, Mikhail Grigorenko and Nikita Nesterov - the Russians were by far the most talented team in the tournament. U.S. coach Tony Granato said they may be as good as 20 of the 31 NHL teams. The skill primarily from the Kontinental Hockey League was apparent all tournament and especially in the final against Germany, which had all of its players from leagues in its homeland.
Nikita Gusev had the go-ahead and tying goals in the third period.
Goaltender Vasily Koshechkin let in a fluke goal to Felix Schultz and was hung out to dry on Dominik Kahun's goal that answered Gusev's first goal 10 seconds later. Koshechkin came out to challenge when Jonas Muller slid the puck along the ice for what looked like the game-winner with 3:16 left.
A penalty to Russian forward Sergei Kalinin with 2:11 remaining threatened to end the Russians' gold-medal bid in similar disappointment to their quarterfinal loss on home ice in Sochi four years ago.
Instead, with Koshechkin pulled for the extra attacker to make it 5-on-5, Gusev scored again to help send the game to overtime.
There, Germany goaltender Danny aus den Birken needed to make an edge-of-his-pad save on Kovalchuk all alone driving to the net to keep the game going. An ill-timed high-sticking penalty on Germany's Patrick Reimer 9:11 into overtime put the Russians on the power play, where Kaprizov scored the winner and one of the biggest goals in Russian hockey history.
The victory on the ice came hours after the International Olympic Committee voted not to reinstate Team Russia for Sunday night's closing ceremony.
That means the Russians will again march under the ''Olympic Athletes from Russia'' name and the Olympic flag. The IOC formally banned Team Russia in December over a doping scheme at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi, but invited 168 athletes to compete under the OAR name, making the Russians the third-biggest delegation at the games.
Russia had to wait two weeks for its first gold in Pyeongchang before the 15-year-old figure skater Alina Zagitova won with two flawless programs.
Voynov, at the Olympics because he was banned from the NHL in 2015 for his domestic abuse conviction, cashed in on a brutal turnover by Germany's Yasin Ehliz in the final moments of the first period. Voynov's shot from just inside the blue line got past aus den Birken and in with just 0.5 seconds on the clock, the kind of killer goal that changes the tide of the game.
Russian goal song ''Those Were The Days'' blared over the Gangneung Hockey Centre speakers as fans clad in red, white and blue and holding flags celebrated. They later sang the national anthem as the medal ceremony got under way.

A goaltender interference ruling finally went the Edmonton Oilers' way.
The Los Angeles Kings thought they'd scored the tying goal in the final seconds Saturday night, but it was wiped out on a goalie inteference review.
Dustin Brown forced the puck over the line by pushing into Oilers goaltender Cam Talbot's pad.
A goal wasn't actually signaled in real time, but the officials reviewed the play after the final buzzer and determined it was in.
However, the war room in Toronto then initiated an automatic review for goaltender interference, after which the league ruled there was interference on the play, so the final call was "no goal."
It's the first challenge won by Todd McLellan as Oilers head coach, according to Sportsnet.
