From All-Star ice to overtime winners, the Boston Bruins prospects continued to make noise this week.

It was a big week for Frédéric Brunet. He was named to the AHL All-Star Classic. He competed in the puck control relay, fastest skater, and breakaway relay competitions. Then, in the round-robin tournament, he had two assists in three games.

He returned to Providence for a home-and-home against Bridgeport, and he scored twice. The second goal was the overtime winner to give the P-Bruins their 12th-straight win.

Over in Chestnut Hill, the Bruins have two first-round picks who continue to score. Both have 17 goals and are tied for the team lead. Hagens had three points (2-1–3) this weekend, and Letourneau added a shorthanded goal – further displaying his special teams prowess. 

Also, Cooper Simpson is tied for the USHL points lead (60). 

Here’s a look at how the Bruins’ prospects are performing across the rest of the pool:

Forwards

Andre Gasseau, Boston College: GP: 15, G: 6, A: 10, Pts: 16; +/-: +1, PIM: 6

James Hagens, Boston College: GP: 26, G: 17, A: 17, Pts: 34; +/-: +10, PIM: 18

The Bruins’ 2025 first-round pick has continued to shine at BC this season. With 34 points, he leads all Eagles in points and is producing at a 1.31 point-per-game pace.

Hagens was named the Beanpot MVP last week.

Beckett Hendrickson, Minnesota: GP: 31, G: 5, A: 12, Pts: 17; +/-: +8, PIM: 16
