Morgan Geekie is The Peterson School’s Hardest Working Player of the Week

In an absolutely jam-packed playoff race, the Bruins need every point they can get right now, and forward Morgan Geekie is playing like someone who knows exactly that.

In fact, it was Geekie who's been on the board with the game-winning goals in back-to-back games for the Bruins, which is more than enough to earn the 26-year-old Geekie the nod as The Peterson School's Hardest Working Player of the Week.

In action for three games this past week, Geekie finished the week with a team-leading four goals, while his four points were the second-most among all Bruin skaters, trailing only David Pastrnak (six points).

“I think he’s seeing it offensively right now,” B's interim head coach Joe Sacco said of Geekie following last Saturday's victory over the Avalanche at TD Garden. “That’s from my standpoint, that’s what I see right now. That line has developed some chemistry here in the last little while.

"Geekie is doing a good job."

In addition to the goal scoring or perhaps on the way to his goal scoring, Geekie has remained true to his nature as a 'grind' type player. And it's really been his ability to drive to the net and outwork defensemen that's allowed him to get to the high danger areas of the offensive zone and finish his looks.

Geekie also delivered what was a thunderous hit to the Sens' Thomas Chabot in what was a playoff-style intensity contest for the Bruins, and even drew a penalty by not reacting to Ottawa's frustration.

With the four-goal week, Geekie begins this next week just three goals away from matching his career high of 17, set last season.
