Many fans have been wondering when the Boston Bruins are going to ice their opening night roster, and Marco Sturm made an official roster announcement regarding it.
This season, there has been a lot of question marks surrounding the Bruins roster, especially after bringing in a bunch of depth players.
It wasn't clear how many young players were going to crack the NHL roster, but Sturm has revealed an official announcement on the opening night roster.
Bruins hope to ice NHL roster on Saturday
Saturday night, the Boston Bruins are going to be facing off against the New York Rangers, where Marco Sturm hopes to ice his NHL roster.
#NHLBruins coach Marco Sturm on #NESN, "Hopefully, play our (2025-26) team for the last (preseason) game against the Rangers."
Tonight, the Bruins are facing the Capitals, where they are giving one last chance to two young players to crack the NHL roster.
Both Fabian Lysell, and Georgii Merkulov are set to be slotted into the roster where they have an opportunity to grab a roster spot.
Last chance for Lysell and Merkulov to show Sturm and company they belong.
Saturdays lineup against the Rangers could be a roster we see on opening night so time's running out on this pair of younger forwards to prove they can hang at this level on a regular basis.

This preseason, bot Merkulov and Lysell have been underwhelming, and have not impressed anyone so far.
But with a solid performance tonight, they have a chance to crack the NHL roster out of camp.
