Matthew Poitras Secures Spot with Boston Bruins Beyond Nine-Game Trial
Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery has confirmed that rookie centerman Matt Poitras will remain with the team past the nine-game threshold, where he could have been sent back to the OHL. Poitras has impressed with five points in nine games and has shown resilience and toughness, earning the trust of the coaching staff. The 19-year-old's presence has brought youthful energy to the team, and his future looks promising. The Bruins will need to call up a defenseman from Providence due to injuries, and Mason Lohrei is being considered. The Bruins' penalty kill has been strong, and goaltender Linus Ullmark has been exceptional, contributing to the team's 8-0-1 record.
