Bruins Will Have New Captain in Year 2 Under Marco Sturm as They Try to Keep Pace in Loaded Division – WTOP News
Boston plans to name a new captain and adds JJ Peterka and Fraser Minten after a 45-27-10 season and early playoff exit.
- Head coach Marco Sturm and general manager Don Sweeney confirmed the Boston Bruins will name a new captain this season after operating without one last year, with David Pastrnak and defenseman Charlie McAvoy as top candidates.
- Boston bolstered its roster by acquiring 24-year-old winger JJ Peterka from Utah for two first-round picks and signing 22-year-old center Fraser Minten to a seven-year, $50.4 million extension.
- Minten played in all 82 games last season, posting career highs with 17 goals and 18 assists, while defenseman Jonathan Aspirot recorded three goals and 10 assists in 61 games and expects increased ice time.
- Goaltender Jeremy Swayman anchors the defense after posting a 31-18-4 record with a 2.71 goals-against average, while Pastrnak enters the season following his fourth straight 100-point campaign.
- The Bruins aim to improve on last season's 45-27-10 record after losing to Buffalo in the opening playoff round, opening their schedule on September 29 against the New York Rangers.
