Boston Bruins prospect, Matt Poitras, is at risk of being poached by Team Canada for the U20 World Juniors. Reports suggest that Team Canada might extend their forward cuts to accommodate Poitras, creating a dilemma for the Bruins.

Sounds like Team Canada may make four cuts at forward, rather than three, to hold out hope for one of Zach Benson/Matt Poitras before the roster freeze. Can always bring someone back in/over to Sweden if they don't get an NHLer.

The potential four-cut decision implies Canada's keen interest in Poitras, leaving the Bruins vulnerable to losing the promising prospect to international competition.

As the roster freeze looms, the Bruins may face tough decisions on whether to bring Poitras back from Sweden if he doesn't secure an NHL spot or risk seeing him contribute to Team Canada in the U20 World Juniors.
