Date News Advice
March 7, 2025 Poitras was reassigned to the minors Friday for AHL eligibility, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - Poitras is mired in a 23-game goal drought in addition to a nine-game pointless streak, so an extended stay in the minors could be good for his long-term development. Still, the Bruins will need bodies to fill out the lineup the rest of the way and will want to get a look at several young prospects, including the 20-year-old Poitras. None
March 1, 2025 Poitras (lower body) will play against Pittsburgh on Saturday, per the NHL media site. - Poitras won't miss any additional action after being limited to 7:08 of ice time in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Islanders. He has one goal and 10 assists in 29 NHL appearances this season. None
Feb. 28, 2025 Head coach Joe Sacco said Friday that Poitras (lower body) made it through practice well and could be an option for Saturday's game in Pittsburgh, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports. - Poitras sustained a lower-body injury during Thursday's game against the Islanders, but it doesn't appear as though he's dealing with a significant ailment. The Bruins will likely wait to see how he fares during Saturday's morning skate before determining his status, but he seems to be trending in the right direction. None
Feb. 27, 2025 Poitras (lower body) is unlikely to return to Thursday's game versus the Islanders. - Poitras was injured in the second period, and while he wasn't fully ruled out, the Bruins' update doesn't bode well for him getting back on the ice Thursday. The 20-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's game versus the Penguins, which is the first half of a back-to-back set. None
Feb. 18, 2025 Poitras was recalled from AHL Providence on Tuesday. - Poitras was sent to the minors prior to the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament. The right-shot center has chipped in one goal and 10 assists through 26 games with the Bruins this season. None
Feb. 8, 2025 Poitras was reassigned to AHL Providence on Saturday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - Poitras will get to keep playing with the minor-league team while the Bruins' season is on pause during the 4 Nations Face-Off. The 20-year-old is likely to be called back up prior to the Bruins' Feb.22 game against the Ducks. None
Feb. 5, 2025 Poitras notched two assists in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Wild. - The 20-year-old center has a hand in second-period tallies by Charlie McAvoy and Trent Frederic, giving Jeremy Swayman all the support he would need on the night. Poitras hasn't scored a goal in 10 games since returning to the Bruins' lineup in mid-January, but he's been productive with seven assists, and he's been seeing shifts on Boston's second power-play unit. None
Feb. 3, 2025 Poitras was recalled from AHL Providence on Monday, per Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic. - Following a paper move to the minors, Poitras was on the ice for Monday's practice. He has one goal, eight assists and 20 shots on net through 23 NHL outings this season. Poitras will probably be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Minnesota. None
Feb. 2, 2025 Poitras recorded two assists in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers. - The 20-year-old center had a hand in two of David Pastrnak's three goals on the afternoon. Poitras snapped a brief five-game point drought with the performance, and if he continues to see even-strength shifts with Pastrnak, he could work his way onto the fantasy radar. He'll need to prove himself before being worth a roster spot in most formats, however -- since returning to the Bruins from AHL Providence in mid-January, Poitras has five assists in nine appearances. None
Jan. 21, 2025 Poitras logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-3 win over the Sharks. - Poitras has three helpers over three games since he returned to the NHL roster following a two-month stint in the AHL. The 20-year-old center has filled a middle-six role lately. He's produced seven points, 14 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 17 outings at the NHL level this season. None
Jan. 14, 2025 Poitras was recalled from AHL Providence on Tuesday. - Poitras' promotion could be a longer-term stint in the NHL after the Bruins placed Mark Kastelic (upper body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. In his previous 14 NHL appearances, the 20-year-old Poitras has managed just one goal, three assists and 10 shots while averaging 12:44 of ice time. Whether Poitras suits up versus the Lightning on Tuesday will depend on the health of Charlie Coyle (illness), who is a game-time decision. None
Nov. 11, 2024 Poitras was assigned to AHL Providence on Monday. - Poitras appeared in the Bruins' last 14 games but didn't make a significant impact for the NHL club early in the year, logging a goal, four points, six hits and four blocked shots while averaging 12:44 of ice time. He should have more consistent opportunities to contribute in the minors but could rejoin Boston at some point. None
Nov. 3, 2024 Poitras scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 3-0 victory over the Flyers. - The 20-year-old center potted his first goal of the season midway through the first period, banging a loose puck past Aleksei Kolosov, and it was all the support Joonas Korpisalo needed in the Boston net. Poitras has four points in his first 10 games this season, and he's unlikely to be a consistent contributor without regular power-play time or a spot in the Bruins' top six. None
Oct. 25, 2024 Poitras recorded an assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Stars. - Poitras snapped a four-game slump when he set up a David Pastrnak tally in the first period. The Bruins have gotten next to nothing out of their middle six so far, and Poitras moved from third-line center to second-line right wing while also losing his power-play spot Thursday. He has two assists, three shots on goal, four hits and a minus-1 rating through six appearances, so he doesn't need to be rostered in redraft formats at this time. None
Oct. 13, 2024 Poitras logged an assist in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings. - Poitras made his season debut Saturday after missing the first two games with an undisclosed injury sustained during training camp. The 20-year-old centered the third line and saw 16:05 of ice time. He's looking to build off a 15-point effort as a rookie, which he accumulated over 33 regular-season games before a shoulder injury ended his campaign. None
Oct. 12, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) will be in the lineup Saturday against the Kings following his activation from the injured non-roster list. - Poitras sat out the first two games of the 2024-25 campaign after being injured during training camp. He notched five goals and 15 points across 33 games in the 2023-24 regular season. Poitras will replace Riley Tufte in Saturday's lineup. None
Oct. 11, 2024 Per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe, coach Jim Montgomery said Friday that Poitras (undisclosed) is "very close" and could play Saturday at home versus LA. - Poitras led the Bruins in stretching before Friday's practice, after skating Thursday in a regular jersey during practice. Poitras has missed the opening two games of the season with his injury. Should he return against the Kings, look for the 20-year-old to center the third line, alongside Justin Brazeau and Trent Frederic. None
Oct. 10, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) practiced in a regular jersey Thursday and is getting close to returning to the lineup, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports. - Poitras will not play Thursday versus Montreal as he sits out his second straight game. The 20-year-old sophomore had five goals and 10 assists in 33 regular-season appearances with the Bruins last season. Look for Poitras to grab a bottom-six role upon his return, which could come as early as Saturday against the Kings. None
Oct. 7, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday on Opening Night versus Florida. - Poitras registered five goals and 15 points in 33 regular-season games with Boston in 2023-24. He is considered day-to-day and will begin the 2024-25 campaign on the injured non-roster list. When he returns, Poitras could replace Cole Koepke in the lineup. None
Oct. 4, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) may not be ready for the start of the season, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports Friday. - Poitras has played in three of Boston's six preseason games, scoring once. He missed the end of the 2023-24 campaign with a shoulder injury, but there is no word as to whether or not it is the same injury. Poitras made his NHL debut as a 19-year-old last season, registering five goals and 10 assists in 33 regular-season appearances. He is slated to center the third line once he is healthy. None
Oct. 3, 2024 Poitras won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Kings due to an undisclosed injury, and he's considered day-to-day, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports. - Poitras missed the end of the 2023-24 season due to a shoulder injury, but he returned to action for the start of the Bruins' development camp at the beginning of July. It's unclear what injury he's dealing with in the closing days of the preseason. His final chance to suit up before the start of the regular season will be in Saturday's exhibition game against the Capitals. None
July 1, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) took the ice in a regular sweater for the start of the Bruins' development camp Monday, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports. - Poitras was limited to just 33 regular-season games for Boston this past season due to injury but looks ready to go ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. In those limited appearances, the 20-year-old center notched five goals on 40 shots to go with 10 helpers. Barring any injury setbacks, Poitras should be a near-lock to make the Opening Night roster in October. None
Feb. 20, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) was moved to long-term injured reserve Tuesday. - Poitras underwent shoulder surgery Feb. 7 and is done for the year, so this move shouldn't come as a surprise. Poitras, who should be a regular in the Bruins' lineup in 2024-25, finished the 2023-24 campaign with five goals and 15 points through 33 games as a rookie. None
Feb. 19, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per CapFriendly. - This is simply a procedural move as it was already announced that Poitras would miss the remainder of the 2023-24 season. He wrapped up his rookie campaign with 15 points in 33 contests. None
Feb. 7, 2024 Poitras underwent surgery on his right shoulder Wednesday and will miss the remainder of the season. - Poitras' expected recovery timeline is five months, so he should be able to participate in a fairly regular offseason training regimen. The 19-year-old will end his rookie season with 15 points, 40 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 33 appearances. Poitras should be ready for 2024-25 if he avoids setbacks in his recovery, though it's possible he could proceed slowly during training camp. He could be placed on injured reserve in the coming days to free up a roster spot. None
Feb. 6, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) will not be in action versus the Flames on Tuesday, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports. - Poitras has struggled to stay healthy since returning from the World Junior Championship, playing in just six of the Bruins' last 12 contests. Even when healthy, the 19-year-old center has been struggling to produce, as he is mired in both a five-game pointless streak and a 12-game goal drought. As such, Poitras could find himself watching from the press box periodically once cleared in order to hopefully rediscover his offensive upside. None
Jan. 27, 2024 Poitras (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup Saturday against Philadelphia. - Poitras has accounted for five goals, 15 points and 40 shots on net through 33 games this season. With Jake DeBrusk (undisclosed) unavailable as well, Patrick Brown and Jakub Lauko will suit up versus the Flyers. None
Jan. 20, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) is expected to return to the lineup Saturday against Montreal, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports. - Poitras was originally labeled doubtful for the contest, though it appears he'll suit up after all after missing Boston's last four games. The 19-year-old rookie has five goals and 15 points in 30 games this season. None
Jan. 19, 2024 Per Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald, Poitras (shoulder) is unlikely to play Saturday versus Montreal, according to coach Jim Montgomery. - Poitras has already missed four games and Montgomery said Friday that he has 'a couple of boxes to check' before returning to the lineup. Poitras has been practicing and it appears that he could return as early as Monday in Winnipeg. Poitras has seen lots of action on the top two lines, but he has settled into a bottom-six center of late. None
Jan. 18, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) will be reevaluated ahead of Thursday's clash with Colorado. - Poitras looks poised to return from a three-game absence due to his shoulder injury, though he hasn't been officially cleared to play. The Ontario native remains mired in a nine-game goal drought during which he's recorded a mere six shots. The 19-year-old center did chip in five helpers over that stretch, continuing to produce even when the goals aren't coming. If Poitras plays against the Avs, it would likely mean a return to the press box for Oskar Steen. None
Jan. 15, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) won't suit up in Monday's contest versus the Devils. - Poitra will miss his third straight contest, but he is trending in the right direction after skating Monday morning. The 19-year-old rookie has five goals, 15 points and 38 shots on net in 30 games this season. None
Jan. 13, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) won't play Saturday versus the Blues, per Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic. - Poitras will miss his second straight contest after being injured in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to Arizona. He has produced five goals, 15 points and 38 shots on net across 30 outings this season. None
Jan. 11, 2024 Poitras (shoulder) won't play against Vegas on Thursday but remains day-to-day and is still traveling with the team, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports. - Poitras has recorded two assists in three games since returning from the World Junior Championship but has yet to put a shot on net. In fact, the youngster hasn't scored a goal since Nov. 27 against Columbus. Without Poitras available, Pavel Zacha and Charlie Coyle will feature as the first and second-line centers, respectively. None
Jan. 9, 2024 Poitras suffered an apparent shoulder injury in Tuesday's game versus the Coyotes, Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe reports. - Poitras delivered a check in the third period but came out of the situation worse for wear. He should be considered day-to-day ahead of Thursday's game in Vegas. If Poitras has to miss time, Jakub Lauko or Oskar Steen could get into the lineup. None
Jan. 4, 2024 Poitras has returned to the Bruins on Thursday, after playing for Team Canada at the 2024 World Junior Championship, Eric Russo of NHL.com reports. - Poitras had two goals and a pair of assists in five games as Canada was eliminated in the quarter-finals by Czechia 3-2. Poitras will sit out Thursday as he adjusts to the time change as the tournament was held in Sweden. Poitras has played well for the Bruins this season, scoring five goals and adding eight assists in 27 games. The Bruins still have the option to return Poitras to OHL Guelph as he is still 19-years-old, but Poitras has played very well at the NHL level and it may be difficult to send him back to junior. None
Dec. 18, 2023 Poitras was assigned to Team Canada for the 2024 World Junior Championship on Monday. - Poitras has produced five goals, 13 points, 38 shots on net, 15 blocked shots and 10 hits over 27 NHL games during his rookie 2023-24 campaign. He is expected to return to the Bruins once the tournament is over, per Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic. Poitras will likely have a big role for Canada at the World Juniors. None
Nov. 28, 2023 Poitras scored a goal in Monday's 5-2 road loss against the Blue Jackets. - Poitras ended up with a plus-1 rating while scoring on his only shot, and he won six of his 11 faceoff opportunities in 16:22 of ice time across 21 shifts. The 19-year-old pivot snapped a nine-game goal drought which dated back to a two-point performance on Nov. 4 in Detroit. He'll look to carry the momentum into Thursday's home game against San Jose. None
Nov. 5, 2023 Poitras scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Red Wings. - The 19-year-old scored a slick goal midway through the first period by deking Ville Husso out of his shorts and tucking the puck into the net on his backhand, before Poitras helped set up David Pastrnak for Boston's final tally in the third. The 2022 second-round pick has four goals and seven points in 11 games for a very impressive start to his NHL career, and Poitras is slowly working his way into a more prominent role at both 5-on-5 and on the man advantage. None
Oct. 31, 2023 Poitras isn't expected to be sent back to juniors this season and will remain with the Bruins after head coach Jim Montgomery said the 19-year-old center will be "sticking around" in Boston, Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe reports. - Poitras has hit the nine-game mark which represents the decision point as to whether or not to burn a year of his entry-level contract. According to Montgomery, Poitras has earned his place on the 23-man roster, no doubt in part due to his three goals and two assists to open the campaign. None
Oct. 24, 2023 Poitras scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Blackhawks. - Poitras tallied his third goal in his last two games Tuesday, beating Petr Mrazek on a breakaway to extend Boston's lead to 2-0 in the second period. It's been an impressive run for the 19-year-old rookie, who now has four points (three goals and an assist) through his first six NHL games. Poitras, a second-round pick in 2022, offers some intriguing upside going forward as he looks to have developed some chemistry with Morgan Geekie and Jake DeBrusk on Boston's second line. None
Oct. 22, 2023 Poitras scored twice on four shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Ducks. - Poitras turned things around for the Bruins, tallying twice in a span of 3:51 during the third period. His second goal stood as the game-winner. The 19-year-old doesn't have a ton of offense with three points through five contests, but he's settled into a middle-six role with the Bruins in his rookie year. He's added eight shots on net and a plus-3 rating. None
May 5, 2023 Poitras inked a three-year, entry-level contract with the Bruins on Friday. - Poitras had 16 goals and 95 points in 63 OHL games this season. The 19-year-old was selected by Boston with the No. 54 pick in the 2022 NHL Draft. Poitras will likely need more time to develop before he'll be ready to earn a roster spot with the Bruins. None
