Charlie Coyle's first game of the pre-season. Interesting to see who is linemates are going to be.

Eyes on Boqvist, Brown, Lysell, McLaughlin, Poitras, Steen and Mitchell.
Brown is the 'safe' option for 4C, so interested to see how he looks first time out here. Lysell had a disappointing first game. I don't think he's seriously in the mix for a roster spot this year, but all the same this is an important opportunity for him to put that aside, lay down a marker and impress. Poitras equally I'd say is not ready yet, but he's been really good so simply excited to see him out there again.
Boqvist is right in the battle for a bottom 6 spot, so expect him to go hard. Same for McLaughlin and Steen. They feel like longer shots, but all they can do is play their best and hope that's good enough.
Mitchell was intriguing in his first game. He's around the mark for a 6/7D spot. Good chance for him to make his case again here.

Another look at Poitras is very exciting, he's given us all a lot to look forward to. Wonder who gets the start. Bussi having another good game may stir the pot a little

Count down ...
Forwards: Jesper Boqvist, Justin Brazeau, Patrick Brown, Charlie Coyle, Jake DeBrusk, Morgan Geekie, A.J. Greer, Fabian Lysell, Marc McLaughlin, Matt Poitras, Anthony Richard, Oskar Steen
Defensemen: Mike Callahan, Brandon Carlo, Hampus Lindholm, Ian Mitchell, Dan Renouf, Reilly Walsh
All serious contenders to make the team...going to be an interesting game.

Within a week the bruins could lose some good players ... Mitchell Boquist new Steen and Richard worry be the most.

I don’t think Walsh, Wotherspoon, Renouf, Regula or Megna are ‘serious contenders to make the team.‘
Callahan has been better than all those D and he’s still behind Mitchell and Lohrei.
I'd put Megna behind Beecher at least.
I’d throw Richard and Steen in that pool at this point.

Brown had better finish with 5+ hits and a fight tonight. He shouldn't be a guarantee. Run some Philly defensemen.
Another night of hockey, a good day.

I know it is only a pre-season game....but as most here know I hate the stinking Flyers So a win please with no injuries
What's the deal with Brazeau? 45 points in the AHL at his size, can he be a late bloomer or is he truly that awful of a skater?
I will say that he was hitting before he took that puck off the foot. I haven't seen much hitting from anyone since then.
Since Farabee has turned into the new Vanek against the B's, here's hoping Brazeau can turn into the second coming of Tim Kerr

Will be interesting if they put him at wing tonight . . . they certainly want a good look at him considering how much time hes getting in these games so far.
Coyle, DeBrusk, Poitras and Lysell. Curious who the linemates for these folks will be.
I suspect we will see Coyle and DeBrusk together. If we see DeBrusk with Poitras instead that would be something I would read into a lot. But, I doubt we see it. But will Lysell get a shot on the wing with Coyle and DeBrusk as a chance to show what he can do with real NHL talent, or is he already destined for Providence?
Edit: lol well there is my answer below.

Poitras getting a chance to try to drive a line with a couple of low end or borderline NHLers is a good test.

Lysell and Poitras appear to be the focus tonight?
Excited to see boys tonight. I'll be hyperfocused on Pots and Lysell!
No injuries please!
You already know the drill!

Disagree, you are setting him up to fail with two anchors. He is a promising prospect, not Gretzky.
This guy should be in more than one game in the preseason

might see him in last pre-season tilt vs opponents likely starting lineup or close to it. Personally, I`d like to see him go to Providence, eat monster minutes, bulk up just a bit. Very impressed by his game but a little more time to marinate in Providence not a bad thing
