New Bruin Reveals The Real Reason Why He Signed With Boston
In a recent chat with Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe, winger Alex Chiasson spilled the beans on his summer adventures in the NHL. It seems Chiasson was a hot commodity, scoring a "fair number" of PTO (Professional Tryout) offers from various teams.
But after some careful pondering, he's hitched his wagon to the Bruins. Why, you ask? Well, Chiasson's got his sights set on securing a steady spot on the team's roster, and he's got a hankering to play for a team that's in it to win it.
This isn't Chiasson's first rodeo, folks. Nope, it's actually his fifth spin at the training camp carousel on a PTO. And let's just say he's been around the block a few times. He hit the jackpot with NHL deals in the first three attempts, managing to snag a spot with different teams.
But hey, we're all human, right? The fourth time around, which happened to be with the Arizona team last season, didn't quite pan out.
So, there you have it�Chiasson's taking his chances with the Bruins, hoping to make his mark and slide right into that coveted regular roster slot. With determination in his heart and the thrill of playing for a team that's got a shot at the big prize, we'll be watching to see if Chiasson can turn his PTO luck around and light up the ice with the Boston Bruins.
