Boston Bruins Announce Preliminary Training Camp Schedule and Rookie Camp Roster

With the 2014-15 season fast approaching, and the anticipation of a new season skating into view, Boston Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli gave fans a jolt of excitement today, announcing both the preliminary training camp schedule and rookie camp roster. Training camp is not only a time for Bruins brass to see what talent may slide into a roster spot this season, but it’s an opportunity for fans to get up close and personal with current and future stars before the long season begins. The preliminary schedule for the 2014-15 Boston Bruins Training Camp presented by AT&T, which begins Thursday, September 18 and will include a Black & Gold scrimmage in Providence, RI at the Dunkin Donuts Center is subject to change.

The Bruins also announced their roster and schedule for the 2014-15 Boston Bruins Rookie Camp, presented by AT&T which begins Thursday, September 11 and includes three games in Antioch, TN at the Nashville Predators practice facility (Ford Ice Center, 5252 Hickory Hollow Pkwy, Antioch, TN 37013). So, if you’re a Boston fan living in Predators territory, you’re certainly in luck!

The group of rookies traveling down to Tennessee will be composed of 13 forwards, seven defensemen and two goaltenders for 22 total players.  Of the 22 players, nine are American, 10 are Canadian, two are Swedish, and one is Czech. Throughout the tournament the Bruins will be wearing the white Spoked-B sweater.
