Line Change
Matthew Poitras will draw back into the Bruins' lineup Saturday vs. New York.
The Bruins coaching staff is implementing some load management tactics for 19-year-old rookie Poitras as he is expected to sit for the second time in the last four games. After posting seven points (4G / 3A) in his first 11 games, Poitras' game has fallen off slightly, posting only five (1G / 4A) in his last 15 games.
Poitras was drafted in the second round (No.54 overall) of the 2022 NHL Draft. The 19-year-old centre led the Guelph Storm (OHL) with 95 points (16G / 79A) in 63 games during the 2023 season.
