Bruins Re-Sign Defenseman Hunwick to Two-Year Contract

The Boston Bruins have announced that they have re-signed defenseman Matt Hunwick to a two-year contract worth $2.9 million. The deal averages out to $1.45 million per season. In 53 games last season with the Bruins, Hunwick scored six goals and 21 assists for 27 points. In 66 career games with the team, he has six goals and 22 assists for 28 points. This is a decent move for Boston, as Hunwick has good puck-moving skills and some offensive potential, as well as the potential to become a top-four defenseman. If he can continue to improve his skills over the next couple of seasons, the Bruins could look to keep Hunwick long-term.
