Boston Bruins prospect John Beecher displayed some impressive skills Saturday afternoon.
Boston’s 2019 first-round draft pick (30th overall) is competing in the 2019 World Junior Summer Showcase with Team USA’s development squad, and he scored a pretty impressive breakaway goal to put his club up 2-0 over Sweden.
