Veteran free-agent additions over the summer are not going to make it easy for second-year coach Jim Montgomery to do it, but some prospects are going to make it difficult for the coaching staff to make some decisions.
One of those prospects who is going to make roster decisions tough is 19-year-old center Matthew Poitras.

A top-four defenseman like Grzelcyk, along with other assets of course, could be enough for the Bruins to score a top-six center at the deadline.
