The Boston Bruins have unveiled a strategic move that may not sit well with fans, as they plan to incorporate more nights off for their emerging star player, Matthew Poitras.

Head Coach Jim Montgomery emphasized the importance of open communication with coaches, trainers, and sports science experts to tailor a regimen that optimizes performance and prioritizes the player's long-term health.

Montgomery says there will be more nights off worked in for Poitras going forward. Says there will be constant communication between coaches, player, trainers, sports science, etc.

Also says this is partly inspired by what Anaheim has been doing with Leo Carlsson.

This new approach takes inspiration from the Anaheim Ducks' successful handling of their talent, specifically citing Leo Carlsson. The Ducks' method involves careful monitoring and adjustment of playing time for young players, striking a balance between performance excellence and injury prevention.

While fan reactions may be mixed, the Bruins' decision reflects a commitment to nurturing the long-term success of their young star.
