Boston Bruins fans and prospect experts around the league have been quick to circle Will Zellers as one of the reasons for the team's prospect pool resurgence. Zellers winning the most outstanding player award for the USHL made the trade deadline teardown feel even more justified, along with the acquisition of Fraser Minten and the ability to tank over the remaining month and a half and land James Hagens.
Zellers will now join the University of North Dakota for his freshman season, fresh off a 44-goal, 27-assist performance over 52 games with the Green Bay Gamblers.
