Matthew Poitras News
Boston Bruins forward Matthew Poitras (undisclosed) remains day-to-day and could be in danger of missing the season opener on Tuesday evening, according to Scott McLaughlin of The Skate Pod. Poitras has only been able to play in three preseason games so far but participated in full throughout the development camp earlier this offseason. The 20-year-old's rookie campaign was cut short after he suffered a season-ending shoulder injury in February. It is yet to be known if this injury has resurfaced. Through his first 33 games in the NHL, the former second-round pick tallied five goals and ten assists. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue to hold on to Poitras, as he should have a consistent spot within the Boston top 9 and showed some offensive upside in his rookie campaign.

Matthew Poitras Out For Season After Surgery
Boston Bruins forward Matthew Poitras underwent shoulder surgery on Wednesday and will miss the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. The 19-year-old completes the year with 15 points (five goals, 10 assists) in 33 games. Poitras had his best spell early in the season when he was a top-six regular. He's shown very good potential, and general manager Don Sweeney has called Poitras a "key part" of Boston's future. The young forward is expected to recover in five months, meaning he should be fully ready for the start of 2024-25.

Matthew Poitras Hurt In Tuesday's Loss
Boston Bruins center Matthew Poitras sustained an upper-body injury in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to Arizona. He was hurt in the third period in a collision with Coyotes defenseman Sean Durzi. The 19-year-old was playing in his third game since returning from the World Junior Championships. His status for Thursday's contest versus Vegas is currently unknown. Poitras boasts five goals and 15 points through his first 30 career games. Oskar Steen and Jakub Lauko are his potential replacements.

Matthew Poitras Scores First Career Goals
Boston Bruins center Matthew Poitras had a memorable outing against Anaheim on Sunday, finishing a 3-1 victory with his first career goals. The 19-year-old helped the Bruins turn a loss into a win in the third period, scoring two goals after Mason McTavish had given the hosts the lead five minutes into the final frame. Through his first five career games, Poitras has also tallied one assist. The young centerman has failed to carry his preseason form over to the regular season, but the team has put a lot of trust into him, and Poitras should continue to get plenty of usage in the middle six.

Matthew Poitras Continues To Impress In Bruins Camp
Boston Bruins winger Matthew Poitras continued to impress the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night as he collected his second preseason marker as part of a 5-4 overtime loss to the Washington Capitals. The 19-year-old's tally knotted the game at four apiece before Capitals forward Matthew Phillips ended the game with less than a minute remaining in overtime. Drafted 54th overall by the Bruins in 2022, Poitras spent last season with the Ontario Hockey League's Guelph Storm, racking up 16 goals and 95 points across 63 games. He is making a serious bid to crack the Bruins' roster out of camp but can also be returned to the Storm without burning a year off his entry-level contract before playing in his 10th NHL game.
