Boston Bruins Make An Unpopular Roster Move Involving Young Forward
The Boston Bruins made an unpopular move involving a young player today at practice.
Joe Sacco and the Bruins organization as a whole has been known for not giving young players looks in the NHL. Take Georgii Merkulov and Fabian Lysell as perfect examples, both have earned the opportunity to play in the NHL but the Bruins will not give them the chance.
An unpopular roster move was made involving a young forward
Well today, the Bruins once again proved that by making an unpopular roster move during practice that has fans upset.
Vinni Lettieri looks like he is going to be a healthy scartch for the second straight game. It looks like instead of playing him, the Bruins are choosing to put Oliver Wahlstrom in his place.
Lines at Bruins practice:
Geekie-Zacha-Pastrnak
Marchand-Lindholm-Coyle
Frederic-Poitras-Wahlstrom
Koepke-Beecher-Brazeau
Kastelic, Lettieri
Lohrei-McAvoy
Zadorov-Peeke
Callahan-Carlo
Wotherspoon-Oesterle
Swayman/Korpisalo
Lettieri has been good for the Bruins, but has been limited to an average of just 12:05 of ice time per game. In eight games this year with the Bruins, Lettieri has scored two goals , but has been limited on ice time.
Going off of the morning lines today, it seems like Bruins defenseman Michael Callahan is good to go after leaving their last game against the New York Rangers with an upper-body injury.
Callahan ended up taking a puck up high, that caused him to lose some teeth and have to get stitches.
Do you think the Bruins taking Vinni Lettieri out of the lineup was a good roster move?
