Top Boston Bruins prospect Reid Dyck may ditch the team to re-enter the draft
Top Boston Bruins goaltending prospect Reid Dyck had a phenomenal season with the Swift Current Broncos and may elect to ditch the Bruins to re-enter the 2024 draft.
Over the years we have seen some players get drafted twice into the NHL as they rejected signing with their original teams. One of the best examples of this is goaltender Fredrick Andersen who was drafted twice, first by Carolina and then two years later by Anaheim who he broke into the NHL with.
It looks like we could see another situation like Andersen's as the Boston Bruins could lose one of their top goaltending prospects, Reid Dyck, as he is eligible to re-enter the NHL draft in 2024 after being selected in 2022.
Bruins 2022 sixth round pick Reid Dyck can re-enter NHL Draft if not signed by June 1. He went 25-7-2 with .911 save percentage for WHL's Swift Current in '23-24
It is currently unknown if Dyck will re-enter the draft as he signed an amateur tryout with the Providence Bruins, Boston's AHL affiliate, but got into no action.
Dyck made the WHL's second all-star team this past season and would likely be selected if he were to re-enter the draft, and could be selected higher than he was taken originally.
This will certainly be an interesting storyline to follow over the coming weeks as the Bruins could lose one of their better prospects for nothing.
