Player Discussion Jack Studnicka

[ON3M4N]

I could get used to seeing this

 

[JCRO]

Very impressed these last two games

He’s starting to show glimpses.

Maybe flourishing more under center? Or things are just starting to click?

 

[trenton1]

or the B`s will go full youth movement, caution to the wind, let DK go in off season, Beecher slides into the 3C role, Coyle in 2 C.....highly doubt it, really just posting this to read the reactions

Ha. I'll bite.

The Bruins are f***ed if Coyle is ever the 2C. I hope there's a generational player in the drafts during that time.

Yep. Great third C at 3.2 mil. Brutal at 5.25

Same. But if there is, I’m sure we won’t pick them for whatever reason

 

[bruins repeat time]

Well so far on a short look Jack looks a lot better at center than he did on the wing

Noticeably better. He’s been dangerous at times.

Liking him and T Fred together as well

 

[bruins repeat time]

It isnt even just the offense his stick is everywhere . He looks more like a young Bergy all around now

 

[kjpm]

Best game from Jack so far. They gotta keep him in the middle, he was all over the ice today.

Easy now......

He played very well. Starting to think he could be the real deal.

I agree.
Everyone played lousy Thursday and Friday.

But lately Studnicka has really started to show that he’s getting it.

 

[tonino2424]

He looks much better at center. You can see him generating more offense from there. He is just been a little unlucky when it comes to scoring goals. It will come in time.

 

[Root]

Studnicka’s development at center is a big underlying story this season. The Bruins haven’t developed a top-6 center since Krejci, I don’t count Seguin because he was a winger his entire time in Boston.

He’s been very good, creating a lot of chances. He factored in on Frederic’s goal and had many of his own chances. This kid becoming a legit top-6 player would be huge for the Bruins future.

2022-2023 Top 3 Centers

Barkov
Studnicka
Bergeron

 

[LouJersey]

I'm giving him the keys to line 2 right now, give him 74 and 88 and let him flourish

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

I'm giving him the keys to line 2 right now, give him 74 and 88 and let him flourish

Marchand — Bergeron — Smith
DeBrusk — Studnicka — Pastrnak
Ritchie — Krejci — Coyle
Kuraly — Frederic — Wagner/Bjork

The third line could be a problem for teams.

 

[UncleRico]

I think what’s going even more unnoticed and probably been the strength of his game is his work in the defensive zone as a center. Constantly in great position and not only making great passes out of the zone, but getting open for passes from defensemen to start the transition game.

He has an elite defensive game. Bergy-lite out there.

 

[PlayMakers]

Marsh - Bergy - Pasta
DeBrusk - Krejci - Coyle
Ritchie - Studnicka - Smith

 

[ON3M4N]

Last 3 games at 5v5 for Boston, Studnicka ranks the follow among B's

iXG: 1st
iSCF: T-1st
iHDCF: 2nd

He's playing like a kid that doesn't want to go back to the AHL. I hope to see him sick a center even when Krejci returns. Not sure if that means Kuraltly or Coyle side over.

Kuraly is better on LW. Coyle hasn't looked good at wing when it's been tried. Or better, just bench Kuraly because he is playing like crap. But Cassidy seems to value Kuraly more highly than most of us here, I'd prefer to see him go to the left with Stud at center.

I mean Kuraly has been solid on the PK and in the dot this year, so I kinda of get why he may get a longer leash from Bruce. Coyle and Krejci have good numbers together and with Ritchie they could do well cycling. Idk I know everyone says Coyle is a better C (and he maybe),but hes also not trash on the wing.

Coyle's not Jimmy Hayes out there at wing, for sure. But I like the way he looks at center with Craig Smith and maybe Frederic on the left long term. Makes for a dangerous line. Kuraly has been decent on the dot this season, true, but he just isn't doing what he used to as a center. Maybe on the wing where he can use his speed and big body to get in on the forecheck and create trouble would leave Studnicka to do more with the puck. When Kuraly gets the puck in the o-zone the play dies almost every time.

LOL, This is ridiculous. Do you watch hockey ?. So lets examine, You want to break up the best line in hockey........Then you want to demote Krejci...to a third line, (have you watched the last six games).....You want to put Krejci on line three...while moving Coyle to wing...rotflmao......Coyle who is the perfect third line center.....All the while putting DeBrusk in a top six role because ???He has certainly shown he deserves second line minutes............Not to mention putting the best goal scorer in the league with a rookie....And all of this because of Jack Studnincka ?........LOL, what about the rest of the team ?........I do agree on one thing you said. That third line would be a problem for teams.....Mainly our team......I suggest you go back to the drawing board and use other crayons.....
