There are so many College Free Agents that I want this year I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment

Make a list, let's see who we get.

Given the state of the farm system, the Bruins should be serious players in the college FA market.

Ford + McLaughlin please. Either could be Noel Accari (with upside of course) next year and a cheap replacement for Lazar.

 

[aguineapig]

Watched BC - Providence last night to scout McLaughlin and Ford but came away impressed with this Duran kid for Providence. Might be a sleeper. The first two on Saxon Eric's list would be nice, we've had some luck in the past with No's 4 and 33.

“SKOOOOOOOOOOOOOG” would be popular in the garden.

There's a part 2 coming..

Thanks for Part 1. I had fun going through. Lots of size here. Love the defenseman you suggested. A lot of them would fill nice depth with upside in the organization. Hope we end up with a couple of these guys.

Part Deux

I'll guess I'll piggyback off your post like I did the first one.

C/RW Carl Berglund U-Mass Lowell

6'2'' 194 lbs.
17P/19GP

He’s active off the rush, taking passes in stride and driving through the slot to collapse defenders for his wingers. He’s excellent at receiving bad passes in the neutral zone, kicking pucks to his stick without losing momentum. Berglund usually attempts a chip or pass off the boards on his entries. He’s much better off the puck, setting his stick as a target for his teammates to hit.

Right D Brandon Estes Union

6'0'' 174lbs.
13P/22GP

LW Nathen Burke Bowling Green

6'2'' 190 lbs.
18P/23GP

Former Minnesota Gopher who transferred to Bowling Green this season. Seems to be having more success.

C Casey Dornback Harvard

5'11'' 181 lbs.
14P/15GP

C Nolan Walker St Cloud State

5'10'' 181 lbs.
15P/20GP

RW Julian Napravnik Minnesota State

5'11''167 lbs.
32P/24GP

German boy. Haven't had one since Marco Sturm?

C/RW Hampus Eriksson Northern Michigan

6'6'' 211 lbs.
13P/19GP

Large human. He's on the older side at 25 years. Never been a PPG in college but that size is intriguing if he uses it.

G Jaxson Stauber Providence

6'3'' 174 lbs.
2.02 GAA and .927 SV%

Good size and solid numbers this year. Intriguing goalie.

Right D Victor Mancini U Nebraska Omaha

6'3'' 201 lbs.
4P/24GP

Of course we'll be watching with interest what Jack McBain does and Jordan Harris

Bruins could definitely use a LHD with Top 4 upside and Harris fits the bill. Good Massachusetts boy should spurn the Habs for the B's. He'll look good in Black and Gold. What's Jack McBain's story?

Great thread

Could you move your part 2 over here?

 

[Saxon Eric]

I was at the U-Mass Lowell v U-Mass game
Loved Trivigno's game,he's small but wide and plays like a dick

Lebster wasn't as noticeable

Love UML Andre Lee, Kings pick but...

There's buzz that Carl Berglund will turn pro after this season, I'm on it

 

[Gee Wally]

I like Blankenberg.Kid is pretty good and chips in.I get why he was not drafted he looks awkward out there but he gets it done.

 

[Alicat]

Thanks Eric!

@BruinsFanSince94 Yes Julian N would be the first German forward since Sturm. He would be the 3rd German to play for the Bruins after Sturm and Seidenberg.

I ignorantly forget Seidenberg was German.

 

[The National]

I ignorantly forget Seidenberg was German.

How could you forget Jack doing a horrible german accent whenever he did something?

 

[Alicat]

I ignorantly forget Seidenberg was German.

You forgot about the German Hammer?!?!

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

You forgot about the German Hammer?!?!

Not him the player but where he was from. It went right over my head when I thought “last Bruin of German nationality” haha

And was not aware of that nickname. Was that an HFB thing or maybe I’m oblivious on this

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

These things are not present in my mind right now haha
