Recent transactions completed by the Boston Bruins has ultimately revealed the organization's official opening night roster, and it's surprising.

While the Boston Bruins have now completed this year's training camp, we now have intel on which players made the team, and which ones didn't.
On Sunday, October 5, this Original Six franchise announced their final roster cuts prior to the start of the 2025/26 NHL season, placing several players on waivers.
These players included two forwards, Matej Blumel and Alex Steeves, one defenseman, Johnathan Aspirot, and one goaltender, Michael DiPietro.
All of these Bruins will report to Boston's AHL affiliate team, the Providence Bruins, if they go unclaimed.
Meanwhile, forward, Matthew Poitras, was also cut from the roster, yet, he does not require waivers and will report directly to the Providence Bruins.
Take a look:
