Could Bruins be interested in late summer PTO contract?

from Poke the Bear · host Conor Ryan

In this episode of Poke The Bear, Conor Ryan and Evan Marinofsky run through Boston's potential free agent and PTO options at this stage of the season, and explain why right now it doesn’t make sense for the Bruins to pursue any of these veteran free agents & shut down the idea of even pursuing a guy like Vladimir Tarasenko. They also discuss whether or not some of the team's depth forwards can take a step forward this year and who is the most intriguing player of the group of Alex Steeves, Lukas Reichel and Michael Eyssimont. They wrap things up by taking a look at the Providence Bruins and discuss what under the radar players in Providence could potentially get some minutes for the Boston Bruins this upcoming season. 0:00 - Coming up on show! 0:50 - Welcome 2:46 - Should Bruins pursue veteran free agents? 12:59 - Prizepicks 14:40 - Who are you most intrigued by Alex Steeves, Lukas Reichel or Michael Eyssimont? 15:27 - Alex Steeves 17:25 - Lukas Reichel 19:11 - Who will be first one Sturm turns to of Steeves, Reichel & Eyssimont? 20:57 - Subscribe to the podcast! 23:18 - Which Providence Bruins player will make jump to Bruins? 26:40 - Wrapping up!
