The Boston Bruins have signed defenseman Tommy Cross to a one-year, two-way contract worth $650,000 at the NHL level.
Cross, 27, spent most of last season in the AHL; however, he did get into one of Boston’s playoff games against Ottawa when Adam McQuaid, Torey Krug, Brandon Carlo and Colin Miller were all injured.
It was just the fourth NHL game of Cross’ career, the other three coming in the 2015-16 regular season.
In 74 games for Providence this past season, Cross had 12 goals and 23 assists.
Bruins re-sign Tommy Cross to a 1-yr, 2-way deal worth $650K. Solid, tough depth guy thats also the perfect role model for young AHL players
