The Boston Bruins Nearing Decision On Rookies Future With The Team
The Boston Bruins find themselves at a crossroads with 19-year-old rookie center Matt Poitras. Despite a promising start, recent offensive challenges and disruptions, including injuries and World Junior Championship participation, complicate the situation.
Adding to the dilemma is the uncertainty surrounding a new injury. If the injury persists, sending Poitras back to Guelph in the OHL might be on the table since he's not eligible for AHL Providence.
The decision essentially boils down to whether he fits into Boston's playoff lineup. If not, a stint in the OHL for more playing time could be beneficial. However, if the Bruins still believe in his earlier performance, retaining him becomes crucial. Keep an eye out for updates on this developing situation.
