Brykaliuk Added to WJAC Camp

I had a nice chat with Bruins Director of Player Personnel Rick Oakes this morning about Estevan's Tanner Froese heading to Camrose this weekend for the World Junior A Camp and he mentioned that there were a couple of Bruin players who could be added to the camp's roster pending some injuries.

This afternoon Oakes confirmed that forward Matt Brykaliuk was invited to take part in the camp in Camrose. Brykaliuk has been one of the most impressive rookies in training camp, Dylan Smith skated with him in training camp on the weekend and he was impressed with the hands and playmaking abilities of Brykaliuk,

Brykaliuk has been skating on a line with Froese and the Jesse Bernard in the preseason and the trio has the makings of being an impressive rookie line, if Bruins Head Coach Keith Cassidy elects to keep the three together during the regular season.
