Bruins recall Poitras and Callahan, place McAvoy and Kastelic on IR

Prior to tonight’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Bruins announced a few roster transactions — and there’s some bad news mixed in with the good.

The good news: as many have hoped, Matt Poitras has been recalled from Providence. He was on the ice for the team’s morning skate earlier today and appears likely to play tonight.

Poitras was last with the B’s a little more than two months ago; during his AHL stint, he put up 8G-12A-20PTS totals in 23 games.

In addition to Poitras, the B’s also recalled defenseman Michael Callahan from Providence.
