The move draws some genuine questions when you look at the fact the Boston Bruins have the contract space to have Karson Kuhlman counting toward their 23-contract roster limit. Not only that, the Providence Bruins don’t play again until after the NHL team, so it’s most certainly not a conditioning stint.
If this move is all about saving a little bit of money, it feels incredibly unjust to Karson Kuhlman who has managed to improve his game since his recent return to action on the Boston Bruins’ second line.
He may not have rewarded the Bruins with points, but he hasn’t looked wholly out-of-place.
