Rangers trade defenseman Nick Holden to Bruins

The Boston Bruins acquired defenseman Nick Holden from the New York Rangers on Tuesday in exchange for AHL defenseman Rob O'Gara and a third-round pick in 2018.

Holden will bring offensive depth to Boston's back end, as he has 14 goals and 32 assists over the last two seasons for the Rangers.

On the other side, New York adds another pick for the 2018 draft along with O'Gara, a 24-year-old who was selected by the Bruins in the fifth round in 2011.

O'Gara has no points in 11 career NHL games.
