Prospect Info: Bruins Prospects XXIV

[DKH]

Has UML ever head a five pack of luminaries like that there at the same time? Jones, you, me, Briere, and SaxonEric. Hard to pick who’d be left off the Mt Rushmore.

Jonsie would go - Daniel Briere was actually an early member when he played for Sabres

I know one thing we wouldn’t have screwed up the Cutter Gauthier negotiations

we got to do it again ~ only thing I can think of us three together was Live Aid when Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, and Eric Clapton did Stairway to Heaven

 

[Kegs]

I could have put him higher but not 2
Letourneau has the highest upside and arguably the highest floor

I haven’t seen him play yet to be fair. I’m trying to watch more prospects play so I can formulate real opinions. I feel like you are probably right. I’m just a Locmelis fan boy. Don’t mind me.

 

[Over the volcano]

I could have put him higher but not 2
Letourneau has the highest upside and arguably the highest floor

After seeing a couple BC games all I noticed of Letourneau was that he's really tall. Game seems a little quick for him right now

 

[whitetape]

Was a phenomenal game - Lowell defense is really good and older (3 Colgate guys playing 5th year)

BC has 4 likely top 6 NHL F in Hagens, Leonard, Perrault, and Stiga. They are a fun group. Leonard would be a great Bruins. Sad he’s going to Caps

All three Bruins prospects looked good - Letourneau skating is very good he just needs experience

Gasseau looked like he could play for Bruins fourth line this afternoon

Jellvyk is pretty slick and fun guy to watch

Leonard is as good as any BC player in the last few years. And that's saying a lot.

 

[DKH]

He can skate well - and he has good hands

He wasn’t behind or looking lost against Lowell

 

[SanDogBrewin]

If Gasseau and Jellvik were more consistent scorers at BC it wouldn't matter till I see them in the AHL. It's all about absorbing the physical play in Providence. Seen plenty of good NCAA scorers get eaten up by the hitting in the AHL.

Dom is right about the move back to wing for Jellvik. Totally different player. And I think he is the better player between he and Gasseau. Much better ice awareness in the offensive zone.

Just a question which guys so far step up

 

[Mad-Marcus]

Hockey News wrote about (G) Svedbeck @ PC. Should we be as positives as they are? Does this make Bussi expendable after this year?

Gallagher, Locmelis, Walsh and Svedebäck all up big from last year

DiPietro is outplaying Bussi this year by quite a bit.
Svedeback does not have a contract with the Bruins yet.
We have until Aug 15/2026 to sign him, which I assume we will.

One would guess that UFA Bussi would be looking for a new home on his own next year, no?

It's nice to hear that some of our prospects are improving and moving up the ladder.
Potsy is starting to light it up with the P Bruins, hoping he gets called up before the New Year.
The McLaughlin experiment should be over soon?

It's inferred that they'd have to sign him, duh(the point is should they). He's a college athlete, can't sign and stay like a Junior player IIR.

I thought they didn't offer Reid Dyck a contract so he is now a free agent?

Absolutely correct.

And he even attended Jets Rookie Camp. LOL

Bruins media team with another homerun haha

Maybe they can trade him for a 7th round pick!

Yell-Vik with the assist.

It's a no brainer that we will sign him.
There will be a spot available for him in the ECHL or AHL next year.

 

[JAD]

Leternaeu has started slow hopefully he heats up soon

Should be expected ... he's playing against men not high schoolers. It's good for him, tougher competition. Give him time to grow into his body and build some muscle and core strength. We won't know what we have as a player for a few years. Project with potential.
