Jack Studnicka says he’s become more ‘explosive’ following off-season training
Jack Studnicka ascended in Boston’s prospect rankings after the Bruins selected him in the second round of the 2017 draft. He followed up a stellar career in the Ontario Hockey League with a fine first impression with the Providence Bruins during his first professional hockey season in 2019-20.
The Bruins had high hopes for Studnicka in the 2021 pandemic shortened season. But Studncika’s path to becoming an NHL regular took a hit in that injury-plagued. He found himself back with the P-Bruins toward the end of the season as the big club added the likes of Taylor Hall and Curtis Lazar at the trade deadline.
