"The good news for Fabian Lysell? He is a year older, more physically and mentally mature and he now has at least a small body of work in the National Hockey League from which he has to work as he prepares for the opening of training camp on Sept. 17. The bad news? Making the Bruins roster, though not exactly chock-full of high-end talent, appears even harder to make for him than it was last year."
"'That's how it is,' said a seemingly unperturbed Lysell. 'Guys are coming in and I haven't thought too much about that. I'm focusing on my summer training and getting ready to get back here.' The 22-year-old Lysell, selected with the 21st overall pick in the 2021 draft, has to do a better job of seizing his opportunity - and immediately - than he did last training camp."
Fabian Lysell enters training camp a year older, more physically and mentally mature, and with a small body of NHL experience. The Bruins added veterans and younger prospects, increasing competition for limited roster spots. Lysell faces Patrice challenges from acquisitions such as Arvidsson, Jeannot, Kuraly, Eyssimont and younger pipeline players like Matt Poitras, Fraser Minten and Marat Khusnutdinov. Previous preseason shortcomings hurt his chances last year despite showing flashes during brief NHL call-ups. Lysell is focusing on summer training and must seize opportunities immediately to secure a permanent role with the team.
