The info above, including the Bruins' roster, will be updated tomorrow (Monday).

In case anyone needs to see the original training camp roster:

 

[CapnZin]

Wooooooo

 

[Juicy Pop]

It bugs me that we’re wasting games looking at Stewart over one of Frost/Farabee.

A washed up player that needs to goon it up to get noticed isn’t worth anything in today’s game. He’s not going to show you anything else.

 

[Striiker]

We need some bug spray to get rid of stewart

 

[DancingPanther]

We need some bug spray to get rid of stewart

Yesssss andreoff and Stewart!

Some would say the need moar like him...

 

[hatcher]

That 3rd line rocked it last game all of them. Great to see great coaches leave them together for tonight's games.

 

[Jtown]

im actually a bit excited to see couts with jvr.

Brandon Manning of forwards.

 

[deadhead]

Of course they're going to take a long look at the scrubs, "free depth" - but once you cut them they may be gone, then you're forced to rush prospects if you have the inevitable string of injuries (last year Couts should have sat out the first month, JVR, etc).

And they're taking long looks at the prospects for the 4th line and for first call ups.

We're talking back of the roster decisions, 4th line, and press box (13th forward, 7th defenseman).

With Frost and Farabee they already have a strong sense of their strengths and current limitations, and know that any decision is easily reversed (Allentown is 2 hours away).

Interesting to see Bunnaman at LW, the fact they're giving Bunnaman, Twarynski, NAK, Rubtsov and Vorobyev plenty of preseason time says this group is the "practice squad," maybe 4th line, maybe on a shuttle from Allentown to Philly as need arises.

 

[landsbergfan]

Yesssss andreoff and Stewart!

This is their moment

Great song choice today!

 

[kudymen]

All good. You know your hockey dude. Glad the NHL wants more hits and contact and you are seeing it now and the fights are going up to. It's all gonna happen soon.

If you mean as slow as rocks (except Laughton) than yes, I 100% agree with you

 

[DancingPanther]

This is their moment

It all comes down to this

 

[JayRosehillMVP]

Be nice if Twarynski could get away from Stewart for once

 

[Curufinwe]

Be nice if Twarynski could get away from Stewart for once

Twarynski-Rubtsov-NAK

 

[dragonoffrost]

This is their moment

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

f*** Stewart and Andreoff for even still being here. Hope that Morin does well again.

 

[Curufinwe]

Someone needs to play when prospects like Frost and Patrick can't stay healthy.

 

[Striiker]

 

[bennysflyers16]

That sure does suck, but lets hope hes done enough to earn that 3C spot

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

Too small; Too weak.
