The Boston Bruins lost 2-1 the Philadelphia Flyers in their 2022-23 preseason opener Saturday.



More on that, Boston Bruins and NHL news, as well as NHL trade rumors in the latest Boston Hockey Now Bruins Daily:

Boston Bruins

It wasn’t pretty but it was a gritty and promising preseason opening 2-1 loss to the Flyers by the Bruins. Part of the promising performance was Jakub Lauko, who scored the team’s lone goal.

Things got pretty physical and feisty in the preseason opener between the Bruins and the Flyers. Connor Carrick and Wade Allison dropped the gloves, as did Hayden Hodgson and A.J. Greer.

As expected, there weren’t too many players expected to be on the opening night roster playing for the Boston Bruins against the Flyers in the preseason opener in Philadelphia Saturday night. However there were some roster bubble players like rookies Johnny Beecher and Fabian Lysell.

Speaking of Fabian Lysell, he had the thrill of playing on a line with Boston Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron for the first two days of training camp.

The Boston Bruins officially signed defenseman Anton Stralman to a professional tryout Saturday morning and hours later the 36-year-old rearguard was skating with the team at training camp.
