Previewing the Bruins’ NCAA Senior Prospects for 2024-25
With less than a month until college hockey begins, here’s a look at the final group of Boston Bruins prospects playing in the NCAA: this group is the senior class. The Bruins have two players entering their senior seasons. The first is defenseman Ty Gallagher. Gallagher no longer plays close to the Bruins. Following his junior season at Boston University, he quickly packed his bags on Commonwealth Ave. and headed to Colorado Springs to play his final season at Colorado College. The other senior is forward Jake Schmaltz. Schmaltz has never played close to Boston and plays for the University of North Dakota.
There would be one more in this class if Riley Duran hadn’t signed a two-year entry-level contract with Boston following his junior season at Providence College. Duran will be looking to make a name for himself on the Bruins this season after making a strong first impression with the Providence Bruins in the American Hockey League (AHL).
