OHL -- hoping Dom will give us the overview on this pick.

In second round Bruins had very little choice but to pick Center unless some obvious steal had fallen hard.

Drafted in the first round, 12th Overall in the 2020 OHL Priority Selection Draft, centre Matthew Poitras became a key cog for the Guelph Storm during his rookie season. Poitras is another player who had to sit out the 2020-21 season as the OHL never got started due to the COVID pandemic. He made up for lost time by putting up 21 goals and 29 assists for 50 points in 68 regular-season games. Poitras also added one goal and three assists for four points in five playoff games, being one of the top players for Guelph. Unfortunately, the Storm fell in the first round of the OHL Playoffs, losing in five games to the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. Poitras also played for Team Red at the 2022 CHL Top Prospects Game.

Undersized with Foot speed trouble for a center scares me. He is a hard two way worker, hopefully he works on that speed. Definitely will need it to get to the NHL to play center

I like the pick.

I really hope for ONCE a center we draft can put up some good stats in his post draft year it always seems like our picks underwhelm when they go back to NCAA.
