    Bruins coach Claude Julien announced Saturday the team will be without captain Zdeno Chara for the final two games before the Olympic break.

    Chara will serve as captain for Slovakia and also will carry his country's flag during the opening ceremonies, so he'll miss Thursday's game in St. Louis against the Blues, and Saturday's against the Ottawa Senators at TD Garden.
