Bruins rookie Matthew Poitras has had quite the rollercoaster lately, even by pro athlete standards. Despite Team Canada's disappointment at the World Juniors, he gained valuable experience, serving as a leader on a big stage.

Back with the Bruins, Poitras jumped back into action in their impressive 7-3 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 19-year-old didn't miss a beat, dishing out two assists and earning a +2 rating on a night when Boston's offence was on fire.

After the game, Poitras shared his thoughts, saying,
"It definitely felt like a good reset getting back here and getting back in the lineup... I kinda got those jitters, like your first game again... lots of excitement."




With players returning and the offence finding its groove, the Bruins are gearing up for a tough road stretch. Challenges against top-notch teams like the Avalanche and the Golden Knights, along with surprises in the Blues and Coyotes, will test their resilience. Poitras' impactful return adds a fresh spark to the Bruins' evolving lineup as they navigate the upcoming hurdles.
