Boston Bruins: 2015-16 Most Valuable Players Ranked

6 of 21

16. Ryan Spooner

In just 29 NHL games last season, Spooner proved he has the talent to remain on the Bruins roster. In those few games he tallied a quick 18 points. This came following criticism from coach Claude Julien earlier in the year, when Spooner claimed he was “blocked on the depth chart” and that was why he didn’t crack last year’s opening roster. That seemed to have lit a fire and Ryan Spooner was able to contribute off the bench in 2014-15. He will need to work on his defensive zone faceoffs and earn the coaches’ trust to take on that responsibility.
