BostonBruins.com - At the end of June, John Beecher was drafted into the NHL. To close out July, he represented the USA at the World Junior Summer Showcase in hopes of making the 2019 U20 World Junior Squad. In a few weeks, the smooth skating center will relocate to Ann Arbor for his freshman year at the Unviersity of Michigan.
It's safe to say, the Bruins 2019 1st round selection has had an eventful summer.
"I think just the biggest thing for me is just kind of taking it one step at a time," said the Elmira, New York native. "I mean, my biggest focus right now is Michigan. Obviously heading over there within this month, I'm really looking forward to it. I think the biggest thing is just not getting too far ahead of yourself and just kind of taking what comes and just taking one step at a time with everything and just enjoying the process."
