Oshawa, ON-The Boston Bruins have signed 2017 second round selection Jack Studnicka to a three-year, entry-level contract announced today by the Boston Bruins organization.

Studnicka recorded 18 goals, 34 assists for 52 points in 64 games with Oshawa in his sophomore season. He led the Generals in their playoff run recording a total of five goals, 12 assists for 17 points in 11 games played. At the team’s award banquet following last season, he was awarded the Red Tilson Community Service award for his dedication to giving back to the Durham Region. Earlier in September, he was named Captain of the Generals for the 2017-2018 season.

This summer Studnicka skated in the Bruins prospect development camp, following that up by attending rookie camp at the end of August. He travelled to Buffalo for the Prospect Challenge with the Bruins as part of the rookie camp. Over the course of the Prospect Challenge, Studnicka tallied two goals, one being short handed, in three contests and saw plenty of penalty kill time. His play at the Prospect Challenge earned him an invite to main camp with the team where he suited up for one NHL preseason game versus Montreal.
