Glad he finally broke through. But to my fellow Bruins fans, do you realize how rare it is for players to become significant contributors at the NHL level when they're in their early 20's? David Krejci had 0 goals in his first 6 games/first season of his career and only 6 goals in 56 games after that. He was 20 and 21 in each of those years, respectively. It wasn't until the year after that that he became, well, David Krejci. I see way too many Bruins fans too eager to pull the plug on a prospect because they've been in the system for 5 years (since they were 17/18 years old) and that's a small part of why the Bruins are where they are. Have some patience, Bruins fans. Looks like we're gonna be in for a long haul anyways.

Bout fuckin time
But in all seriousness hopefully he builds off this and can grab a role on the team next season.
The Bruins are no doubt preparing for a bright future ahead.
