In the 7th round of the 2022 NHL Draft, the Boston Bruins selected Jackson Edward of the London Knights. The defender sits at 6 foot 2 and 200 pounds, but it's not his play with the puck that often gets him noticed. More often than not it's his physical play which grabs the attention of fans. He has let all hell break loose once again during an OHL game.
Living up to true Bostonian DNA, Jackson Edward is known for his short temper on the ice. Think of him as an Arber Xhekaj from the Montreal Canadiens, or a dangerous Matt Rempe, rising rookie from the New York Rangers.
Jackson Edward goes off during his match
This season, the Boston Bruins prospect has found himself getting suspended numerous times, and that is thanks to his highly dangerous game he posseses.
Jackson Edward might just be the most unhinged prospect I've watched in recent memory and for good reason. Edward, No. 92 in white, drops a guy into his own goalie, mounts him, drops the gloves and starts swinging while pulled off by two refs. Would hate to play him. #NHLBruins
Somehow on the play Edward was NOT ejected and Markas Samenas was also penalized. On the play Edward received an incredibly rare triple minor for roughing while Samenas received a double minor.
