Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Dropped to minors
Poitras was reassigned to the minors Friday for AHL eligibility, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.
Poitras is mired in a 23-game goal drought in addition to a nine-game pointless streak, so an extended stay in the minors could be good for his long-term development. Still, the Bruins will need bodies to fill out the lineup the rest of the way and will want to get a look at several young prospects, including the 20-year-old Poitras.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Good to go
Poitras (lower body) will play against Pittsburgh on Saturday, per the NHL media site.
Poitras won't miss any additional action after being limited to 7:08 of ice time in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Islanders. He has one goal and 10 assists in 29 NHL appearances this season.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Could play Saturday
Interim head coach Joe Sacco said Friday that Poitras (lower body) made it through practice well and could be an option for Saturday's game in Pittsburgh, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.
Poitras sustained a lower-body injury during Thursday's game against the Islanders, but it doesn't appear as though he's dealing with a significant ailment. The Bruins will likely wait to see how he fares during Saturday's morning skate before determining his status, but he seems to be trending in the right direction.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Leaves Thursday's game
Poitras (lower body) is unlikely to return to Thursday's game versus the Islanders.
Poitras was injured in the second period, and while he wasn't fully ruled out, the Bruins' update doesn't bode well for him getting back on the ice Thursday. The 20-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's game versus the Penguins, which is the first half of a back-to-back set.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Two helpers Tuesday
Poitras notched two assists in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Wild.
The 20-year-old center has a hand in second-period tallies by Charlie McAvoy and Trent Frederic, giving Jeremy Swayman all the support he would need on the night. Poitras hasn't scored a goal in 10 games since returning to the Bruins' lineup in mid-January, but he's been productive with seven assists, and he's been seeing shifts on Boston's second power-play unit.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Back with big club
Poitras was recalled from AHL Providence on Monday, per Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic.
Following a paper move to the minors, Poitras was on the ice for Monday's practice. He has one goal, eight assists and 20 shots on net through 23 NHL outings this season. Poitras will probably be in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus Minnesota.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Designated for minors
Poitras was sent to AHL Providence on Sunday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.
The Bruins also demoted Vinni Lettieri to Providence on Sunday, so the club currently has 11 forwards on its roster. That would imply that these transactions are a cap-saving measure. Furthermore, Providence's next game isn't until Friday, so Poitras could be back with the big club in short order. The 20-year-old has contributed a goal and eight helpers through 23 appearances with Boston this season.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Two-point effort in win
Poitras recorded two assists in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rangers.
The 20-year-old center had a hand in two of David Pastrnak's three goals on the afternoon. Poitras snapped a brief five-game point drought with the performance, and if he continues to see even-strength shifts with Pastrnak, Poitras could work his way onto the fantasy radar. He'll need to prove himself before being worth a roster spot in most formats, however -- since returning to the Bruins from AHL Providence in mid-January, Poitras has five assists in nine appearances.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Two helpers in Monday's win
Poitras logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.
Poitras has three helpers over three games since he returned to the NHL roster following a two-month stint in the AHL. The 20-year-old center has filled a middle-six role lately. He's produced seven points, 14 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 17 outings at the NHL level this season.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Hands out assist in win
Poitras notched an assist in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Lightning.
Poitras was able to get on the scoresheet in his first NHL contest since Nov. 9. The Bruins' offense has sputtered for much of the season, so the 20-year-old might be able to provide a bit more than other players have in a bottom-six role. He has five points, 11 shots on net and a minus-3 rating over 15 appearances and is likely to stay in a third-line role for the time being.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Called up from minors
Poitras was recalled from AHL Providence on Tuesday.
Poitras' promotion could be a longer-term stint in the NHL after the Bruins placed Mark Kastelic (upper body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. In his previous 14 NHL appearances, the 20-year-old Poitras has managed just one goal, three assists and 10 shots while averaging 12:44 of ice time. Whether Poitras suits up versus the Lightning on Tuesday will depend on the health of Charlie Coyle (illness), who is a game-time decision.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Assigned to AHL
Poitras was assigned to AHL Providence on Monday.
Poitras appeared in the Bruins' last 14 games but didn't make a significant impact for the NHL club early in the year, logging a goal, four points, six hits and four blocked shots while averaging 12:44 of ice time. He should have more consistent opportunities to contribute in the minors but could rejoin Boston at some point.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: First goal a game-winner
Poitras scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 3-0 victory over the Flyers.
The 20-year-old center potted his first goal of the season midway through the first period, banging a loose puck past Aleksei Kolosov, and it was all the support Joonas Korpisalo needed in the Boston net. Poitras has four points in his first 10 games this season, and he's unlikely to be a consistent contributor without regular power-play time or a spot in the Bruins' top six.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Hands out assist
Poitras recorded an assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Stars.
Poitras snapped a four-game slump when he set up a David Pastrnak tally in the first period. The Bruins have gotten next to nothing out of their middle six so far, and Poitras moved from third-line center to second-line right wing while also losing his power-play spot Thursday. He has two assists, three shots on goal, four hits and a minus-1 rating through six appearances, so he doesn't need to be rostered in redraft formats at this time.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Earns helper in season debut
Poitras logged an assist in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.
Poitras made his season debut Saturday after missing the first two games with an undisclosed injury sustained during training camp. The 20-year-old centered the third line and saw 16:05 of ice time. He's looking to build off a 15-point effort as a rookie, which he accumulated over 33 regular-season games before a shoulder injury ended his campaign.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Good to go
Poitras (undisclosed) will be in the lineup Saturday against the Kings following his activation from the injured non-roster list.
Poitras sat out the first two games of the 2024-25 campaign after being injured during training camp. He notched five goals and 15 points across 33 games in the 2023-24 regular season. Poitras will replace Riley Tufte in Saturday's lineup.

Bruins' Matthew Poitras: Could play Saturday
Per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe, head coach Jim Montgomery said Friday that Poitras (undisclosed) is "very close" and could play Saturday at home versus LA.
Poitras led the Bruins in stretching before Friday's practice after skating Thursday in a regular jersey during practice. Poitras has missed the first two games of the season with his injury. Should he return against the Kings, look for the 20-year-old to center the third line, alongside Justin Brazeau and Trent Frederic.
