Geekie scored a goal on three shots and added an assist in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers.
After failing to get on the scoresheet Friday in his return to the ice following a six-game absence due to an upper body injury, Geekie got his legs under him and produced his first multi-point performance of the season. The 25-year-old has two goals and five points in 14 games on the season, and he's unlikely to pick up his scoring pace without a consistent top-six role.

Bruins' Morgan Geekie: Heading to Boston
Rotowire
Geekie signed a two-year, $4 million contract with the Bruins on Saturday, per Chris Johnston of TSN.
