It was another productive week for the Boston Bruins prospects; some posted four-point weekends, others embraced the organization’s longtime physical identity. 

Over in Chestnut Hill, Boston College’s Bruins prospects are continuing to tear up the lineup. It started on Friday with a hat-trick from seventh-overall selection James Hagens. Another first-round pick, Dean Letourneau, got on the scoresheet with three assists. Andre Gasseau, a seventh-round pick in his senior year, did the same. All three of them also had a point on Saturday. 

Will Zellers had a three-point night on Friday in Grand Forks, ND. 

In the AHL, the Providence Bruins had a 13-game win streak snapped on Saturday night. The streak was the highest in franchise history.

However, the Maine Mariners have sneakily put together a five-game win streak. 

Additionally, some of the prospects are embodying the ‘piss and vinegar’ mindset Cam Neely mentioned at the beginning of the season. Some of them have been getting into fights across their minor and junior leagues. 

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

NCAA
Forwards

Andre Gasseau, Boston College: GP: 17, G: 6, A: 14, Pts: 20; +/-: +4, PIM: 6

He is firing at a 1.36 points-per-game pace.

Defensemen

Elliott Groenewold, Quinnipiac: GP: 34, G: 6, A: 13, Pts: 19; +/-: +38, PIM: 18

Groenewold’s plus-38 rating is the highest in college hockey. It took a small hit during Quinnipiac’s 6-1 loss to Cornell, but the next closest is eight behind the Vermont native (+30). 

Kristian Kostadinski, Boston College: GP: 28, G: 0, A: 2, Pts: 2; +/-: +5, PIM: 2
