Gifted with a poised hockey sense and a sound defensive game, new Bruins prospect John Farinacci projects as an effective two-way center at the NHL level if his development goes smoothly.
And given his pro-game projection as an impact pivot down both ends of the ice, it should come as little surprise which player he tries to mimic whenever he hops over the boards.
“I see myself as a 200-foot centerman. I can play on both ends of the ice. Good on face offs — think I can kind of play any role that I need to,” Farinacci said on Wednesday.
