The Boston Bruins wrap up January with a matchup against the Philadelphia Flyers.
With Elias Lindholm out of the lineup due to injury, the Bruins recall Matthew Poitras from Providence to play in tonight’s game. Lindholm left Tuesday’s game against the Predators midway into the second period with an upper body injury.
In Providence, Poitras put up 24 points in 39 games. “He’s gotta be himself,” Marco Sturm said about Poitras after Thursday’s practice. “I don’t need to see anything special out of him. I want to see him go up and down, play good defensively.”
