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.Poke The Bear on CLNS Media is Powered by:💰 Prize Picks - Sign up at http://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS & Download the app today and use code CLNS to get $150 instantly in lineups when you win your first $5 lineup!Learn more about your ad choices.
