Boston Bruins top prospect kicked out of school: Pro hockey career in jeopardy
Boston Bruins' top prospect Cole Spicer may not play another professional hockey game ever again in his life, after he was kicked out of school.
Following some major problems Cole Spicer had with his school, he was kicked out and won't be playing in the NHL for the Bruins any time soon. Spicer has been dealing with some mental issues and other personal problems, which led to him being labelled as academically ineligible to play for UMD next year. Spicer did reveal on social media that he was going to have to step away from the game to deal with a lot of his personal issues.
#Bruins 🇺🇸 forward prospect Cole Spicer (@colespicer_10) 🇺🇸 is done playing hockey for the "foreseeable future."
The 20-year old was drafted by the Bruins in 2022, 117th overall. He scored a total of four goals and had five assists in 17 games with the University of Minnesota-Duluth (NCAA) last season.
Spicer has been receiving a lot of support from fans, who have taken to social media to wish him well in his journey ahead.
Just a reminder to the fans on here
you never know what someone is going through and why they make the decisions they do. I doubt someone who spent their whole life playing hockey would make this choice easily
I hope @ColeSpicer_10 finds his love for the game again
Spicer has a long journey ahead to better himself, but he can take comfort knowing that people appear to be on his side, and will support him through this battle. The Bruins are hopeful he will get to wear their jersey again someday.
