The Boston Bruins have signed defenseman Anton Stralman to a one-year, $1-million contract, reports TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
The veteran blue-liner had been in training camp with the Bruins on a professional tryout.
Stralman is set to enter his 16th NHL campaign with his seventh team. He recorded 23 points in 74 games with the Arizona Coyotes last season, averaging 21:20 per contest.
The 36-year-old projects to play more of a depth role in Boston, even with Charlie McAvoy out to begin the season. The Bruins have six NHL defensemen on the active roster in addition to Stralman and even waived Mike Reilly on Sunday.
