Inside
Terrier Hockey-Episode 1: Bernie
Corbett previews the season with Head Coach David Quinn.
Q&A with Captain Matt Grzelcyk
The regular-season
opener is here, so it’s time for our annual Q&A with the Terrier captain.
This year it’s Charlestown native Matt Grzelcyk, one of just a handful Terrier
captains awarded that honor in their junior season. A third-round draft pick of the Bruins, he
played for Team USA in last winter’s World Junior Championships, serving as an
alternate captain. He follows in the footsteps of other Terrier defensemen who
honed their skills in the National Team Development Program, including Pat
Aufiero, Ryan Whitney, Bryan Miller, Kevin Shattenkirk, Colby Cohen and David
Warsofsky. As a freshman, Grzelcyk
earned Hockey East All-Rookie honors.
Q—Let’s start with your
health? Any limitations after last year’s shoulder injury?
A— I feel even better than I had before. My shoulder has no issues
whatsoever and I cannot wait to get back to playing hockey. The process was
grueling but I cannot thank everyone enough for helping me come back fully
healed. I’m ready to go.
Q. After being drafted
by the Bruins in the third round of the 2012 draft, you’ve participated in
three Boston development camps. How does what you’ve learned there mesh with
Coach Quinn’s philosophy?
A— Getting the opportunity to attend
camp each summer is definitely something that I’m grateful for. The systems are
pretty similar; both teams require hard work and dedication so I’m lucky to be
in the position I’m in. It makes the process that much more enjoyable,
especially getting to stay so close to home. Continue
