The Boston Bruins ended up getting a steal of a draft pick in James Hagens 7th overall, and he has now shockingly spoken about his future with the organization.
For basically the entirety of last season, James Hagens was projected to be the No. 1 overall pick.
Towards the end of the season, his ranking ended up dropping, and it ultimately ended up benefiting the Boston Bruins.
The Bruins were tempted to trade the 7th overall pick, but whenever Hagens ended up falling down to them at 7, they decided to keep the pick, and draft Hagens.
After being drafted, it was unclear what direction the Boston Bruins were going to take with Hagens, but now he has spoken on his decision.

This is definitely the right decision for Hagens, as it will give him an extra year to put some weight on, as well as improve his skills.
Absolutely the right decision for Hagens, and for BOS. He'll be in black and gold soon enough but for now he remains an Eagle and will be among the best NCAA has to offer next season in what's fair to call the league's deepest talent pool ever in terms of high end talent.
Do you think going back to BC for another year is the right decision for James Hagens?
