Zellers led the USHL and set a new franchise record for the Green Bay Gamblers with 44 goals this season while putting up 71 points across 52 games.
The Bruins acquired Zellers this past trade deadline, along with Casey Mittlestadt and a second-round pick in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft, from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for Charlie Coyle.
A native of Maple Grove, Minn, the 19-year-old Zellers will move up to the college ranks this fall and play for the University of North Dakota.
