Jim Montgomery and the Bruins are going to have no shortage of options up front when Boston’s training camp opens next month.
The Bruins announced on Monday afternoon that they have signed veteran forward Alex Chiasson to a professional tryout (PTO) agreement. Chiasson will report to Boston’s training camp next month at Warrior Ice Arena and will try to earn a pro contract — be it with Boston or the Providence Bruins.
Chiasson, 32, has played with seven different teams in his NHL career. Last season, he scored six goals and posted nine points over 20 games with the Detroit Red Wings, including a pair of goals against the Bruins on March 11 and 12th.
