Ryan Spooner has been called up by Boston.
He will join the big club on their road swing in Detroit and Toronto, but it isn't certain if he'll play in either match. Spooner is ready to play if he gets the chance and he feels better than he did the last time he was up with Boston. When I first got sent back, I think I was 170 pounds and I just didn't really feel great. "I got my weight back up and I feel a lot better," said Spooner. "I don't know what I had; I just know I wasn't my best. And my play kind of showed it ... but I played a lot better in the last three or four weeks."

Although the Bruins are pleased with the performance of rookie Ryan Spooner to date, there is much room for improvement in his game.
He has registered 10 assists in 20 games but has yet to score a goal. As well, he needs to improve on his 41.7 percent success rate in the faceoff circle and his minus one plus/minus rating. Spooner could also work on increasing his shot total. He has taken only 37 shots. That said, the 21-year-old pivot has done fairly well in his first tour of the NHL. Keep an eye on him for progress in the aforementioned areas.

Rookie Ryan Spooner has played eight games for the Boston Bruins this season and is a minus-2.
The Bruins' brass likes his potential but, since he is a center, an area in which he must improve is faceoffs. He is 43.6 per cent on his faceoff draws, yet Boston coach Claude Julien lets him keep taking them. "If I pull him out and don't let him take draws, he'll never get better," Julien said.
