Bruins open training camp mixing youth with veteran depth
TL;DR
Boston opened its training camp with two practice groups at Warrior Ice Arena to sort through depth for the 2026-27 season. James Hagens lined up with Fraser Minten and Marat Khusnutdinov, signaling a push to evaluate young talent, while Frederic Brunet drew a possible top-pairing look with Charlie McAvoy. Coach Marco Sturm said he’s willing to try young players, Pastrnak dodged captaincy chatter and stayed focused on team prep, Poitras returned and will have to beat out others for an NHL job, and Michael DiPietro flashed athletic goaltending as Boston charts its lineup in advance of the season opener.
