Bruins' former 1st round pick still waiting for his second chance
Zac Senyshyn is well on his way to his best season ever for the Providence Bruins. In 38 games this season, he's already matched his career best 14 goals which it took him 66 games to score in 2018-2019. Last year, he had seven goals and 13 points in just 18 games.
Senyshyn, a native of Ottawa, ON was the 15th-overall pick from the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. Despite his success in the AHL, he's only played a handful of games over three seasons with the NHL Bruins -- 14 to be exact. He scored his only NHL goal into an empty net during his debut on April 4, 2019:
The Bruins rank 21st in the NHL in terms of goals for per game. With stars Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand both missing time this year, it's hard to understand why a natural goal-scorer like Senyshyn hasn't been able to at least be given a chance to catch on. Colleagues at Bruins Network feel the same way. If the empty-netter wasn't pretty enough for you, watch the goal from yesterday's Providence game against Hershey below:
