Jim Montgomery Released A Surprise Statement Regarding Pat Maroon
Bruins Head Coach Jim Montgomery provided insight into Pat Maroon's potential role on the team, highlighting his offensive capabilities and net-front presence.
Montgomery emphasized Maroon's ability to generate plays from down low and behind the net, making him a valuable asset in offensive zone situations.
"The thing I know about Pat Maroon is (he's) someone we can put in offensive zone faceoffs,"
"He's gonna set picks. He's gonna get to the net front. He's gonna get behind the net. He has an uncanny ability to make plays from behind the net and down low."
However, Montgomery also acknowledged the need to assess Maroon's performance on the ice and his chemistry with teammates before finalizing any lineup decisions.
Maroon fits in the lineup, but he told reporters you have "to see it on the ice" and "see the chemistry" of the players who play well together.
Despite the anticipation surrounding Maroon's debut, the Bruins will have to wait for his return from injury to see him in action and evaluate his impact firsthand.
