Beecher provided an assist, three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Panthers.
Beecher made the Opening Night roster as a fourth-line forward, though he ended up with 15:18 of ice time. It's an encouraging start for the 23-year-old, who had a modest 10 points and added 112 hits in 52 regular-season outings in 2023-24 while also appearing in 12 of the Bruins' 13 playoff games. Beecher didn't put up high-end scoring numbers in his NCAA career at Michigan nor at AHL Providence prior to his call-up last year, so his fantasy value will be limited to deeper formats that count hits.
