With a goal and two assists in his first game, the young addition to the Boston forward group seems to be another find for GM Don Sweeney.

Still took an L
I think Donato and the rest of the 2014 draft was chias doing, got fired after we missed in 2015. However could not agree more with Sweeney being fantastic!
Suck it Marchand
Played like a Bruin!
Chiarelli traded Boychuk for the draft pick that was used to take Carlo. Chiarelli was also GM when Boston drafted Donato the same year Pastrnak, Bjork, and Heinen were drafted.
Boston Toronto and Tampa , any one of them could make it to the finals , and one is going to be out in the first round.
Ironically it was Chiarelli who drafted Donato.
Can't wait for Tolvanen's epi
Considering how well he played in the Olympics, I'm not surprised on his debut.
Hope he knows how to make pizza
It's wrong to say Marchand didn't deserve the call, I mean yeah he gets suspended but he's usually tagged with a penalty for it. But our AHL squad has me excited for the future and hopefully has us set up for the long term.
Donato was actually drafted by Peter “Trade Everybody” Chiarelli. The same year Pasternak was drafted (2014).
Marchand is a gutless turd, thug, a cheap shot artist, and a piece of shit
Donato will or will not be eligible next year for the Colder trophy?
sick starter jersey Shannon
Thank you for the video Shannon. Definitely the future of the Bruins! Great first game despite the loss. This makes me even more confident for the future.
I saw the same flash tonight in his debut that I saw in Pastrnak’s. He’s the real deal for sure. Boston still has more prospects coming up
I was at the game… The score didn't show it but both goailes made some good saves… The kid looked fantastic…. And the refs blew a few calls…. Didn't mind the L in that one good game!
i don't get that logic he doesn't deserve a call reputation matters with suspensions not penalties that non call was a joke
Can't wait to see this kid in the future!!
Im just glad we got Provorov, TK, Patrick, and Frost and hart are going to be great, great time to be a Philly Fan too!
You don't say ummm or awww at all. DO you edit that out? Or have you worked very hard, not to do what everyone else does?
Habs fan here. Can someone please explain the secret to drafting successfully? Some 2 million people in Montreal would love to know the answer.
I was at the game last night. Donato had people standing up when he had the puck. That was about as loud as TD Garden has been all season when he scored his first career goal. Good stuff.
You almost knew after his first shift, nothing happened from it, but he was aggressive going after the puck and gave one of their D some trouble. I think the way he plays you can plug him in on any line you want, and it makes that line better.
Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak
Debrusk-Krejci-Donato
Heinen-Backes-Rick Nash
Wingels-Riley Nash-Kuraly
That’s depth
Hey can we see more NCAA stuff this week? And maybe moving forward?
I don't know what the future holds for that kid, but I wish him nothing but good things. Hope he becomes a star.
Donato fit seamlessly into the roster. It was like he'd been playing with the team all year. This is going to be interesting.
Refs sucked both ways. Burned CBJ too.
I was at the game and I almost shit my pants.
I have a request, could you possibly talk about the Rangers new young defensemen? John Gilmour and Neal Pionk specifically, it would be fantastic if you did.
I liked Donato, but I’m still pissed they passed on Barzal, Boeser, etc
Another informative video. Keep them coming.
Bruins NCAA draft picks always seem to turn out.
I feel fortunate to been there at the game to see his first goal. Also saw macavoys first goal what a season.
That Donato to Krug to Donato goal was beautiful. The American beauties.
I met Ryan Donato this summer, and he was so nice and down to earth. Since then, he’s been a beast at Harvard, carried USA (although it ended poorly) and now he’s a Boston Bruin while still attending Harvard? I mean seriously! He’s meeting the team in Stl tomorrow because he had classes today. Just imagine that while in school “HEY RYAN YOURE A BEAST” and then go play hockey for the bruins 3 hours later.
Donato looks like a 21 year old version of you lol.
Ncaa is a good serie. Watch those games its like ahl but has more high potential players and skill by them in. Can’t wait to see Borgström in Florida. Kid is basically the best forward and center in Ncaa
nice first game but you have to wait arround 5 game to see how it go…
He had three picks to pick barzal
Props to Boston on their quick rebuild. Canucks are still suffering and will continue to for a long time
Now that's a Jersey I really want.
🙂
