The Boston Bruins currently have a depleted roster. With Chris Kelly, David Pastrnak, and Frank Vatrano currently out of action, the Bruins needed players who could fill holes in the roster quickly. Normally, the Bruins would turn to their AHL affiliate team to solve their manpower shortage, but the Providence Bruins have personnel troubles of their own. So, the Bruins took a look at the waiver wire and tried to find a player that could not only complement the current roster, but be able to make an immediate impact.
