    It has been almost two weeks since Bruins forward Gregory Campbell broke his right leg blocking a shot, then remained on the ice for nearly a minute to help his team kill off a power play, a gutsy display that will forever stand out in this Stanley Cup playoff run.

    "I feel good," Campbell said Tuesday in his first public comments since the injury and subsequent surgery. "I mean, it's been eight or nine days. I had the surgery a week ago Monday. Obviously, naturally you have that progression where there's a little bit of pain coming out of surgery. But everybody did a great job, treated me extremely well. The pain subsided very quickly. There's not much I can do at this point, just kind of let it heal."

    The injury occurred June 5 in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Pittsburgh Penguins, a game the Bruins ultimately won 2-1 in double overtime.
