The Boston Bruins have made the decision to send both David Pastrnak and Alexander Khokhlachev to the Providence Bruins of the AHL prior to the December 19th league-wide roster freeze. The freeze begins at midnight eastern time, which means all roster moves must be made at 11:59pm or earlier. Alexander Khokhlachev was recently called up to the NHL again due to injuries plaguing the Bruins bottom-six, specifically their fourth line.

The injury issues started with the Bruins losing Chris Kelly for the year early on in the season, followed by both Jonas Kemppainen and Zac Rinaldo being taken out of commission more recently.
