The Boston Bruins have made a significant roster move by placing rookie Matthew Poitras on the second line alongside Brad Marchand. While they still face a decision about whether to send him back to his junior team in Guelph to preserve his entry-level contract, it's becoming evident that Poitras might be here to stay.

After just two games in the NHL, Poitras has already shown his skills, tallying one assist and four shots while averaging an impressive 14 minutes and 27 seconds of ice time per game.

What's even more remarkable is his promotion to the second line, where he now shares the ice with seasoned players Brad Marchand and Morgan Geekie. This move reflects the Bruins' confidence in Poitras, suggesting that he's a pivotal part of their offensive strategy.

Poitras expressed his excitement, saying,

"It's exciting...I've had great opportunities so far, and I'm just going to keep working. I get to play beside world-class players, so that's pretty cool."
