The Boston Bruins have traded for Rangers defenseman Nick Holden, sending New York defenseman Rob O'Gara and a third-round pick in the 2018 NHL draft in return.
This is the second time Holden has been traded since the 2016 offseason, when he was moved by the Colorado Avalanche during the draft for a fourth-round pick the next year.
Holden, who will be an unrestricted free agent after the season, has three goals and nine assists this season. Both numbers are down from his career highs of 11 goals and 23 assists during his first season in New York in 2016-17.
