The Boston Bruins lost several key pieces from last season’s record-setting roster, yet have managed to rattle off another strong start to the regular season. For affiliate clubs Providence and Maine, that has not been the case.
Providence saw a few notable names depart in the offseason either for other opportunities or for the greener pastures of the NHL. Until this week, Providence with its young roster was still figuring things out. But that all changed on their recent road trip.
Providence knocked off the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins last Wednesday on the road, 3-1, behind a strong team performance.
