The Islanders center received a two-minute minor for interference on the play.
At the start of the third period, the Bruins announced that Poitras would be unlikely to return for the contest due to a lower-body injury.
Poitras is one of the Bruins' most promising young players, so they are naturally hoping that this isn't a serious issue for the 20-year-old forward. In 28 games this season with the Bruins, the 2022 second-round pick has one goal, 11 points, and a minus-2 rating.
