The Boston Bruins have placed 24 year old forward John Beecher on waivers today.

The news broke while Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman was live-on air with Vancouver based podcast/radio show Donnie & Dhali with Don Taylor and Rick Dhaliwal and Friedman broke the news that he thinks the Vancouver Canucks and the Montreal Canadiens both have interest in making a claim on Beecher.

Beecher has just one goal in six games with the Bruins this season, after putting up three goals and 11 points in 78 games last season.
