Bergeron left the regular-season finale against the Montreal Canadiens with an injury and has not yet played in the first-round playoff series. He skated on the top line with Tyler Bertuzzi and Brad Marchand during practice on Tuesday.
David Krejci skated on his own again Wednesday. He has already been ruled out for Game 5 but could return if the series needs a Game 6.
You can watch the Bruins take on the Panthers in Game 5 Wednesday live on Sportsnet and SN NOW at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT.
