Boston Bruins Organization Under Fire For Mistreating A Top Prospect
The Boston Bruins organization is under fire after a recent announcement revealed they are mistreating a top prospect.
Bruins Network on X has recently called out the Boston Bruins for mistreating a fan favourite, and top prospect.
This year, the Bruins have been giving opportunities to players that fans believe should not be getting chances over other prospects, and one of the players fans believe should get another chance with the Bruins is Georgii Merkulov.
According to Bruins Network, the Boston Bruins organization convinced Georgii Merkulov to sign with the team after his freshman year at Ohio State, and since then he has ranked 6th in points in the entire American Hockey League.
Merkulov has an impressive stat line of 64 goals, 89 assists, for 153 points in 169 games played in the American Hockey League.
Despite this, the Bruins have only given Merkulov seven games in the National Hockey League, and in four of those games he has played on the Bruins fourth line.
Take a look:
Boston convinced Georgii Merkulov to sign after his freshman year (!) at Ohio State. Since then, Merkulov ranks 6th in points in the AHL with 64G-89A-153PTS in 169GP. Merkulov has been given just seven (!) games in Boston, four of which started as a fourth-line player. #NHLBruins
Merkulov has definitely earned his opportunity at another shot with the Bruins in the NHL, especially with how their season is going.
In seven NHL games with the Boston Bruins, Merkulov has just one point, but he hasn't been given a real shot with the Bruins to prove himself.
Do you think the Boston Bruins deserve to give Georgii Merkulov another chance in the NHL?
