December 2019 – Beecher has managed five goals and nine points through the first 16 games of his NCAA career with Michigan. While his output doesn’t exactly jump off the page, this production is still respectable coming from an 18-year-old freshman. He was named to the Americans’ preliminary roster for the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championship, and should have a good chance of playing in the tournament. The opportunity to play with his peers in this tournament, rather than older and more experienced players in the NCAA, could incite a confidence boost for Beecher that might translate to even greater success back in Michigan.

June 2019 – Beecher was drafted by the Bruins with the 30th-overall selection in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. Size and speed best define his game, as he is an exceptionally strong skater that generates many of his scoring chances off the rush. His two-way game is already quite mature, where he uses his size and strength to effectively disrupt opposing attacks. While he was buried on the depth chart of a dominant U.S. National Development Team, Beecher still managed a respectable 15 goals and 43 points through 63 league games. He has committed to the University of Michigan, and the next few years of development should grant him the opportunity to take on a larger offensive role. Beecher is not the most creative forward, however his combination of size, speed and puck control, paired with his willingness to drive the net offer a player with high fantasy upside. Chris Mazza
