The Bruins are projected to select center Roger McQueen from the WHL's Brandon Wheat Kings with the No. 7 pick in the 2025 NHL draft. This selection addresses their need for a skilled forward, particularly after other center prospects were taken before them. McQueen stands out due to his size and playmaking ability, having scored eight goals in just 12 games; however, lingering back injuries raise concerns about his immediate future. If he can overcome these health issues, he could significantly impact the Bruins' organization.
Boston rolls the dice on a player who could quickly reset their organization if he hits, McQueen is the rare game-breaker you can get at 7.
On paper, there's a lot to like about McQueen; he's 6-foot-5 and 197 pounds with an impressive goal record, but health concerns loom.
