When training camp began for the Boston Bruins last month, there were a lot of eyes on which prospects would make a push to make the Opening Night roster. After another offseason of free agent signings that were focused on the bottom-six, it was going to be difficult for a lot of prospects to make the roster.
On Friday, Fabian Lysell headlined some prospects sent down to the Providence Bruins in the American Hockey League (AHL), while Georgii Merkulov was placed on waivers for the purpose of assignment to the P-Bruins. However, head coach Marco Sturm named one prospect who has caught the eye of the first-year coach.
