Ondrej Kase, the newest Boston Bruins roster member arrives with the team from the Anaheim Ducks, with Axel Andersson, this year’s first-round pick and David Backes (with 25% of his salary retained) heading the other way.
In adding Kase, we’ve got a player that drives play and shoots really well. For a long time, he’s been a favorite of the statistics and analytics guys; that generally means something. These players aren’t just favorites for no reason, after all.
At just 24 years old, even if he has struggled with some injury issues in the past few years, he still has plenty of time to properly prove himself in the NHL.
