Footage from the Boston Bruins' first skate of the season

The Boston Bruins start their regular season on October 12th, when they travel to face the Washington Capitals. However, we are just 12 days away from the B's first preseason game against the Philadelphia Flyers, so some players were in attendance for the club's first captains' practice of the season.

As we stated in a previous article, several Bruins players were skating this morning: Patrice Bergeron, Hampus Lindholm, Linus Ullmark, Jeremy Swayman, Charlie Coyle, Craig Smith, Nick Foligno, Brandon Carlo, Pavel Zacha, Derek Forbort, Tomas Nosek, Jakub Zboril, Jack Studnicka, Connor Clifton, Jack Ahcan, Chris Wagner, Mike Reilly.

However, judging from more recent photos, rookies Fabian Lysell and John Beecher were also on the ice with the players.

The club's social media team shared a video on Instagram and Twitter of the team's Monday morning skate, and is it ever nice to see Boston Bruins hockey back!
