"The Bruins are not expecting Marc Savard to play in 2011-12.

Savard has not been examined recently by team doctors. But Savard is still experiencing post-concussion syndrome, more than seven months after his 2010-11 season – and possibly his career – ended on Jan. 22.

"Marc Savard won't play this year," said GM Peter Chiarelli. "Nothing has changed in our monitoring. He'll be examined and he'll be declared unfit to play.""
