Bruins Interested In Josh Anderson

As has been the tradition in recent years, the Bruins are on the lookout for an impact winger. They’ve added Charlie Coyle, Marcus Johansson, and Rick Nash over the last two seasons and are known to have interest in Rangers winger Chris Kreider. If nothing materializes there, their focus could turn to Blue Jackets winger Josh Anderson as Joe Haggerty of NBC Sports Boston reports that they are very interested in the 25-year-old.
Anderson is having a particularly rough 2019-20 season as he has just a goal and four assists in 26 games this season and is currently dealing with a shoulder injury that has kept him out for the last two months. He is nearing a return and Haggerty notes that Boston would like to see him back in action before potentially pulling the trigger on any deal.
The appeal with Anderson isn’t hard to see though. Just last season, he put up 27 goals with the Blue Jackets along with 214 hits. Young power forwards with offensive upside are hard to come by and there will undoubtedly be other suitors for his services as well.
Ein neuer Name am Himmel. Letzte Saison richtig stark diese von Verletzungen geplagt!
