It’s hard to win in the NHL without meaningful contributions from talent a team drafts and develops itself.
Fortunately the Bruins have nine players originally drafted by the team who are chipping in through the first three rounds of the 2019 NHL Playoffs.
Here’s what the Bruins are getting from their home-grown talent.
Patrice Bergeron – Round 2, pick 45, 2003
Bergeron has long been one of the Bruins’ top players, and he posted a career-high 79 points in 2018-19. He has eight goals and five assists through 17 playoff games this spring and leads the playoffs in power play goals (6).
