Bruins Forward In Desperate Need Of Big Game

This Boston Bruins forward is due for a strong performance.

The Boston Bruins have won back-to-back games after a tough 6-4 loss to the Florida Panthers in their season opener. Many of their top players, including David Pastrnak, Elias Lindholm, Charlie McAvoy, Pavel Zacha, and Brad Marchand, have contributed significantly. 

The Bruins' depth guys have also chipped, as Cole Koepke and Mark Kastelic are among the team's top offensive contributors thus far. If the Bruins hope to be successful, they will continue to need more offense from their role players. 

One specific Bruin who needs a big game is Morgan Geekie. The 26-year-old forward is aiming to prove that he belongs as the club's second-line right winger. However, he is off to a quiet start in 2024-25.  

In three games so far this season, Geekie has zero points to go along with a minus-2 rating. While he has not had the greatest start to the year, there is a clear reason to believe that he will heat up. During this past campaign, Geekie had a breakout year, posting new career highs with 17 goals, 22 assists, and 39 points in 76 games. With numbers like these, it is apparent that he can produce. It's now just a matter of him breaking the ice. 

Geekie will be a player to watch incredibly closely against the Florida Panthers tomorrow (Oct 14). He is due for a big game, and it will be interesting to see if he has one against the Cats.
