BOSTON - Boston Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney announced today, March 31, that the Providence Bruins have signed defenseman Mason Lohrei to an AHL amateur tryout agreement (ATO).
Lohrei, 22, helped lead Ohio State to an appearance in the NCAA Quarterfinals in 2022-23, ranking first among the team's defensemen in scoring with four goals and 28 assists for 32 points in 40 games. As a freshman in 2021-22, the 6-foot-4, 204-pound blueliner led Ohio State's defense in scoring with four goals and 25 assists for 29 points in 31 NCAA appearances.
Prior to joining the NCAA ranks at Ohio State, Lohrei played three seasons in the USHL with the Green Bay Gamblers from 2018-21. In his final season in Green Bay in 2020-21, Lohrei led all USHL defenseman and ranked sixth in the league in scoring after posting 19 goals and 40 assists for 59 points in 48 games.

Is that possible? If they want to give him a look .

 

[quietbruinfan]

Good luck. He is an interesting prospect. Think he will need at least a full year in Providence to work on his defense, his slapshot and to just generally to smooth out the rough edges. I have to credit Sweeney and Gold. The ATO makes sense as it extends Lohrei's time.

Excellent. I'm so glad we didn't trade him at the deadline. The kid is good.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Cool beans get Mason in the fold.

 

[Gee Wally]

Well you never know. McAvoy wasn't supposed to play with the big club either, then injuries. Bruins are two blocked shots away from Lohrei getting an ELC and callup

 

[HuskyBruinPride]

Big boy.

Didn't realize he was that well sized. I really hope he pans out. Will be interesting to see how he adjusts to the pro game.

The bruins have 3 NHL Dmen in providence already and another on the roster that has to sit out games

Fluto?

 

[GatorMike]

Big boy.

Yup. He's got a pretty big frame. Probably still needs to pack on a few pounds, though.

True, they do, but if Lohrei is what we all think he is, he jumps those guys. Stralman, Renouf, Carrick? Not confidence inspiring.

EDIT: Forgot Reilly (how could I?) but didn't he just get stretchered off the ice?

 

[MarchysNoseKnows]

Yup. He's got a pretty big frame. Probably still needs to pack on a few pounds, though.

I mean he's already 210+...

 

[lopey]

Fluto?

No not Fluto? Talking heads on nhl network. I think it might of been Grimson?

 

[roguepatriot]

Great news. Maybe the final piece for a long Calder Cup run.

They should take time with him there is no need to push him.

Big boy.

My Goodness what a smoothe skater even though that video short .Ohio St will miss him.

 

[BamBamCam]

Everyone knows that Mason is a left handed shot. Right?

 

[Mione134]

Big boy.

Even bigger up close than on tv. And he's definitely big on tv. Love it.
