Has This Player Become the Bruins Secret Weapon?
The team the Bruins have on the ice night in, and night out is bursting with talent. They have strong youth players, such as Matthew Poitras, they have experienced veterans in David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand, and they have two elite goaltenders in Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark. However, they also have a few under the radar players, who don't always make it to mainstream media, that constantly produce for the Bruins, one of them being Trent Frederic.
Frederic has had a strong season with 33 points in 58 games player for the Bruins this year. He plays mostly 2nd and third line minutes but is always finding ways to impact a game even if he does not show up on a scoreboard. His +14 rating is top four on the whole team.
Frederic has gotten better with every season he has played. He has already set a new career high in points in a season this year with his 33, with 24 games to go. He has suited up for every game this year, and with the injury bug always haunting the Bruins, that's huge! Look for Frederic to step up big time with the Bruins potentially looking to trade Jake DeBrusk. They will need to supplement DeBrusk's offense somewhere, with the Bruins looking to bring defense back in return. Frederic would be a prime candidate to step up the secondary scoring for the Bruins once Debrusk is moved.
Frederic is not even in his prime yet and is still continuing to progress in the NHL, a fact that should have Bruins fans excited for the future of this team.
