After playing coy for a lot longer than they needed to, the Bruins confirmed this morning what most of us have suspected for about two weeks: Matt Poitras will not be returning to Guelph.
Speaking to the media prior to an optional skate this morning, head coach Jim Montgomery confirmed that Poitras will remain with the Bruins for his tenth NHL game and beyond.
