If you’re in the Boston Bruins organization and you’re making your NHL debut in Montreal, a game like this is one hell of a way to break into the league.
Jack Studnicka’s NHL debut was the big storyline heading into this game, but thanks to the Bruins’ utter dismantling of the Canadiens, his debut was kind of an afterthought after the final horn sounded.
So...how did he do? On the whole, not bad.
It’s worth mentioning that it’s a little silly to draw conclusions about a rookie after a single game, and even sillier when that game is essentially over 10 seconds into the second period, but we can still discuss it.
