Zach Senyshyn, Axel Andersson Among Bruins’ Second-Round Roster Cuts
The second round of Boston Bruins roster cuts has been made.
General manager Don Sweeney announced Monday that six players either have been assigned to the Providence Bruins or will play overseas. Among those heading to the AHL are Cameron Hughes, Emil Johansson, Joona Koppanen, Tanner Pond and Zach Senyshyn.
Axel Andersson, the Bruins’ second-round pick in this year’s NHL Draft, was reassigned to the Swedish Hockey League after a solid showing in the preseason.
With the regular season slated to begin Oct. 3, Boston now has 42 players remaining on its roster and will need to make further cuts before traveling to Washington to take on the Capitals.
The Bruins take on the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday in their last road game of the preseason. And with a spot open on the third line, Trent Frederic, Jack Studnicka and Jakob Forsbacka Karlsson, among others, certainly will be fighting for a spot ahead of the next roster trim.
