Boston Bruins Prospect Out Until AHL Playoffs

Boston Bruins Prospect Out Until AHL Playoffs
Hannah Carpenter – Inside The Rink

The Boston Bruins picked up a 7-2 win over the New Jersey Devils last night. Their AHL affiliate, the Providence Bruins, clinched a spot in the 2024-25 Calder Cup Playoffs and enter play tonight as the current third seed in the Atlantic Division. Providence is off tonight and won’t play again until Saturday when they hit the road to take on the Hartford Wolf Pack. The Baby Bruins will be without their leading scorer until most likely the start of the playoffs. Georgii Merkulov sat out Saturday and Sunday’s games after leaving Friday night’s contest with an injury. He suffered an upper-body injury after taking a hit in the third period of Friday night’s game. Merkulov this season has 54 points on 15 goals and 39 assists. He is a minus-one and two-power-play goals.

Georgii Merkulov

The 24-year-old, 183 lbs, 5’11” center is in his fourth season in the Bruins organization. They signed him out of Ohio State following the 2021-22 season. In that season with Ohio State, he recorded 34 points on 20 goals and 14 assists. He then joined Providence for eight games, recording five points on a goal and four assists. In 2022-23, he played in 67 games with Providence, recording 55 points on 24 goals and 31 assists. Last season, he played in 67 games with Providence, recording 65 points on 30 goals and 35 assists. He also appeared in four games with Boston but didn’t register a point; he was a plus-one. He’s appeared in six games with Boston this season, and he recorded his first career NHL point on an assist, which came on November 16th against the St. Louis Blues, in which he assisted on a Trent Frederic goal. With the Boston Bruins eliminated from playoff contention, Fraser Minten, Fabian Lysell, and Vinni Lettieri will likely return to Providence soon and give the Baby B’s a full squad for hopefully a deep Calder Cup run.
