Good to see NESN coverage of #2 ranked Eagles against #7 UMass tonight. Gave us a chance to watch Trevor Kuntar in action live from Conte Forum. Though he did not record a point, the freshman made a nice back check to thwart a Minuteman rush in the D zone. BC 4 UM 3 in a well played open game.

Steen and Berglund both doing well in Sweden. Berglund having 12 points in 16 SHL games. Oddly both leading scorers in his team are defencemen (he's the 2nd highest scorer).

Anyone have any idea on what’s up with Beecher? 6GP, 1G, 0A -3 - is he maybe playing injured from that monster hit he took first game? Feel like he should be at least a PPG this year.

He looked like pure ass in the WJC. Thats the only time I actually watched him play though so hopefully he can turn it around.

I see him becoming a very good draft pick however this is a little concerning...

Perhaps not playing on the bestest of teams???

I agree that it is concerning. Probably some contributing factors, such as the big hit, the covid-start, moving lines, etc., but without those factors maybe he is 0.5ppg. FWIW, unlike last year, there are a lot of guys on Michigan scoring at a decent clip, with at least 7 having 4 points or more in the first 6 games.

Beecher just does not seem to be an offensively talented player. That, essentially, is who he has always been, and why there is growing frustration at the Bruins draft mentality. We need to replace Bergeron and Krejci, and we just won't do that with guys like Beecher and Frederic.

And that's a fact Jack.

Also last time I checked Michigan was a very solid team,they had a disappointing weekend though
If you have the chance check them out,fun team to watch,relentless

I want to see Beecher perform at the world juniors as a 19 year old. although a short tournament, I findbest on best tourneys are a good gauge.

You’ll know we’re in trouble once the endless positive scouting reports start filing in, contrary to tangible results....

Thinking about what those two have accomplished, and the way they've carried themselves, I don't see any replacements anytime soon even coming close.

It may take a few seasons- Orr to Bourque, Bourque to Chara, Chara to . . . McAvoy? Hopefully we see the same thing at center. Replacing a HOFer is never easy, and replacing Krejci is a pretty tall order too.

Krejci could eventually make a case to be in the hall of fame, no?
