Bruins Forward Leaves Senators Game With Injury
Boston Bruins forward Johnny Beecher exited the game against the Ottawa Senators after suffering an upper-body injury, the team announced. He will not return for the remainder of the matchup.
Beecher saw limited action before the injury, completing six shifts and logging 4 minutes and 7 seconds of ice time. At just 24 years old, the forward has been striving to secure his position in the Bruins’ bottom six rotation.
"This is certainly a tough break for Beecher, as the 24-year-old has been working hard to maintain his spot in the Bruins' bottom six."
In six games this season, Beecher has tallied one goal, four blocks, seven hits, and a minus-1 rating. Last season, he produced three goals and eight assists for 11 points, along with 71 blocks and 85 hits in 78 contests.
The forward, chosen by Boston in the first round of the 2019 NHL Entry Draft as the 30th overall pick, has appeared in 136 career games over three seasons, collecting 11 goals, 11 assists, and 204 hits.
