Bruins finalize starting lineup: 4 takeaways as Mason Lohrei heads to Providence

After multiple rounds of roster cuts, the Bruins finally have their personnel in place for opening night on Oct. 11.

Following Monday’s Media Day at TD Garden, Boston announced its final cuts ahead of the 5 p.m. deadline for finalized league rosters.

As expected, both Matthew Poitras and Johnny Beecher are set to make their NHL debuts on Wednesday against the Blackhawks after some impressive preseason play, while Mason Lohrei will open the year in Providence.

The one remaining domino is the status of Danton Heinen, who skated on Monday but still needs to sign a contract with Boston.
