The Boston Bruins have added a little depth to their roster by signing defenceman, Andy Wozniewski, who played with the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2007-2008 and then with the St. Louis Blues in the 2008-2009 season.

Basically, he played 74 minor league games last year (3 goals, 18 assists and 82 penalty minutes) between the St. Louis and Pittsburgh organizations but I’m not really overly optimistic about what he’s going to add to Boston’s lineup.
