BOSTON, MA – Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today, February 19, that Lane MacDermid will rejoin the Boston Bruins after conditioning in Providence. The forward joined the team today for their practice at Ristuccia Arena in Wilmington (190 Main St., Wilmington, MA).

MacDermid, a 6’3”, 205-pound forward from Hartford, CT, was drafted by Boston in the fourth round (112th overall) of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft. He was signed by Boston to a one-year contract on July 11, 2012

Good stuff Bruins playing a little softer lately then their rep

^totally agree. they seem to be coasting right now. Not playing with the kind of intensity we're used to seeing. I'm not sure if it's the fact that a few of the tougher Bruins now have recorded concussion issues (Thornton, McQuaid, Horton) or if it's Julien keeping everyone handcuffed. I like Lane but I was hoping that we could have landed Matt Kassian.

7 players sat out practice for the Bruins today with "flu like symptoms" so I'm sure this call up has something to do with that
