Morgan Geekie's breakout season just added a new layer of excitement for Bruins fans.
The 27-year-old forward has been one of Boston's best stories this year, and now his play is being recognized on the international stage.
According to a new update, Geekie has officially landed on Team Canada's IOC long list for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan. The list features more than 90 players under consideration, but simply being included signals how far Geekie's game has climbed.

This development comes at the perfect time. Geekie is currently sitting second for the league lead with 20 goals, right behind superstar Nathan MacKinnon.
His scoring touch has exploded, and he already looks poised to shatter his previous career high of 33 goals. For a player many doubted could repeat last season's surge, this year has been nothing short of a confirmation.
The note from Pierre LeBrun, shared through TSN, suggests Hockey Canada is paying close attention to Geekie's emergence. His blend of size, pace, and heavy release fits Canada's typical roster blueprint. More importantly, his confidence has skyrocketed. You can see it every time he carries the puck through the neutral zone or fires in stride.

As a fan, it feels surreal. Geekie signed a six year, $5.5 million contract this summer amid plenty of skepticism.
Many wondered whether Don Sweeney overpaid or gambled too heavily on a one year spike. Instead, that deal now looks like one of the league's biggest steals. Geekie has become a centerpiece in Boston's top six, carrying play with Lias Andersson and Elias Lindholm, and driving scoring in moments when the Bruins are missing key weapons.
Being on the long list does not guarantee a roster spot, but it confirms Geekie is firmly on Hockey Canada's radar. Considering where his career stood just two seasons ago, this is a massive leap. If he keeps scoring at this pace, Milan may become more than just a possibility.
