Jim Montgomery Announces an Unexpected Healthy Scratch for Tonight's Game

Boston Bruins' head coach Jim Montgomery explained the rationale for Matthew Poitras not playing in tonight's game despite being fit, choosing Oscar Steen as his replacement.

Montgomery emphasized that this choice was a tactical one, intended to regulate Poitras' playing schedule, especially in avoiding consecutive games. This approach is part of a wider plan to preserve the well-being and effectiveness of players throughout the season.

Moreover, Kevin Shattenkirk replaces Parker Wotherspoon, offering a versatile change in the lineup. Montgomery's focus on the health of his players and strategic planning showcases his careful handling of the team roster for enduring achievement in the challenging NHL season.
