Poitras scored a goal on three shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.
Poitras is currently centering the fourth line. He's earned two goals, one assist, six shots on net, six hits and a plus-3 rating across four appearances this season. The 22-year-old isn't a lock to stay in the lineup, but maintaining a decent pace on offense should keep him ahead of Sean Kuraly for playing time. Poitras has already logged more NHL action in 2026-27 than he saw in 2025-26.
