Heinen, 22, spent most of last season with Providence, but did get eight games with the Bruins—he failed to record a point. The former fourth-round pick had 14 goals and 30 assists (44 points) in 64 AHL games a season ago and one helper in the first game of this season.
Heinen appeared in just one game during his call-up and was a healthy scratch for the last two games. The 21-year-old has 13 points (7G / 6A) in 13 games with Providence this season.
Heinen has spent the majority of the year with Providence, where he has picked up seven goals and six assists (13 points) in 13 games. He has failed to record a point in seven games with Boston, but will draw back into the lineup tonight vs. Toronto.
Heinen failed to record a point in seven games with the Bruins. Heinen played in the top-6 with regularity, but could produce offensively. With David Pastrnak ready to return from suspension, the Bruins will roll with Austin Czarnik instead of Heinen.
Heinen has yet to record a point in four games with the Bruins this season and tonight he will come out of the lineup and Ryan Spooner will be back in.
