Bruins' Noel Acciari: Expected to be shelved for a month

Acciari (lower body) will miss roughly four weeks.

Formerly the captain at Providence College, Acciari appeared in 12 of a possible 13 games for the Bruins before getting injured, having contributed a plus-1 rating, two assists and four penalty minutes. Look for more consistent playing time out of Jimmy Hayes on the fourth line with Acciari facing an extended absence.
