Most of the Bruins forwards can't go from backhand to forehand and then lift the puck over the goalie's pad. This guy can do it on the backhand and with ease.

future shootout shot taker in the regular season? Hopefully with one cup ring on his hand, lol

He's like a guy nobody pays attention to but suddenly he's skating by the goalie dropping one in like it's a mail slot. Hey, I think we should call him "THE MAILMAN" 
Part of me wants to say he's another Byron Bitz.... If he can play this "hard" fulltime, he's a long term player IMO. Size and reach can't be taught.

Seriously, what is this guy's ceiling? Any comparables? I mostly just get to watch the highlights but he always stands out.
I don't know where this kid has been all these years, and what held him back, but he is taken advantage of his opportunity and is not being shy out there trying to make plays...........

I mean old school comps, Mike Knuble? He was 6'3 230, 30/30/60 or 30/25/55 kind of guy?
Didn't fight but big body power forward with nice release. Think we'd be pretty stoked if he had that ceiling? Would need to creep into the second line and some PP2 to get there. But if he earns it, he earns it.

That's a great comp that I've thought about myself in addition to a Tim Kerr.
Found money in this kid. Late bloomer. There has to be chip on his shoulder.
For all the crap we give this MGMT for their drafting, their UFA, college signings(Wotherspoon, Clifton, maybe Farinacci, for Ex.) has given us some extremely useful players.
no other bruin can make that move because they dont have that amazing reach.
brazeau is defferent becasue his hands are damn smooth for a big man.
If brazeau sees a goalie up in the crease like that, that move is a goal every time for him

I’ll throw out Mason Marchment…both undrafted and big-bodied wingers who got their chance late
Didn’t realize he had 50pts this year…thought he was in the 30-40 range but that version would be my ceiling, which is still a heck of a player

Love Brazeau. Saw him in his first pro game and he was electric. Sky is the limit for him
His height, weight and hands are going to keep him in the NHL.
his main skill is that he smart. He is always where he needs to be. Almost like Bergeron. Bergeron wasnt the faster skater, but man, he always knew where to be out there.
Another guy the Leafs gave up on, too
