The Boston Bruins have avoided arbitration and agreed to a one-year contract with Ryan Spooner worth $2.825 million.
Spooner and the Bruins were apparently nearly $2 million apart in talks as of Monday, with the forward seeking $3.85 million and the club offering $2 million, as previously reported by Elliotte Friedman.
The 25-year-old center notched 11 goals and 39 points in 78 regular-season games for the Bruins last season, adding a pair of assists in four playoff contests.
