2019 Fantasy Outlook

Since being taken 30th overall by the Bruins at the 2019 NHL Entry Draft, Beecher's star has been on the rise. His first-round selection, originally viewed by some as a bit of a reach, now looks like a strong one following the 6-foot-3, 210-pounder's outstanding performance in this year's World Junior Summer Showcase. While the 18-year-old center worked as a bottom-six forward with the USA Hockey National Team Development Program Under-18 team last season, he was given the opportunity to play in a top-six role during the WJSS, and responded by scoring four goals in five games. Beecher, who is bound for the University of Michigan this fall, is years (not months) away from an NHL job, but if he is able to fully harness his excellent size/speed combo and continue to develop his scoring touch, he could end up centering Boston's first or second line down the road.
