Fletcher is a solid player, and a very reliable D man. He's not known for his scoring abilities, he is more of a defensive defencemen than anything else. His bread and butter though is playing a rough and tumble type of game. The one I can tell you is Fletcher is tough as nails and a damn good fighter. He's a top 5 scrapper for sure at the OHL level. Apart from being a great fighter he is also a devastating body checker, and has his fair share of highlite reel hits. Bottom line is he can do it all when it comes to the physical aspect of the game.
I'm not sure what Providence looks like at the back end, or even if they have room for Fletcher. But if the coaching staff is looking to add a physical presence to the lineup, Fletch could be a good fit. The way his game has developed over the last few years, I wouldn't be surprised if he made the team. Depending on what kind of camp he has it's certainly a possibility.
He's not the next Steve MacIntyre, but it's a good start for the baby Bruins.
Good luck to Scott. I hope he makes the team.
