Bruins ink Grzelcyk to 2-year, $2.8-million contract

The Boston Bruins have signed defenseman Matt Grzelcyk to a two-year contract worth $2.8 million, the team announced Friday.

Grzelcyck's entry-level deal expired at the conclusion of the 2017-18 season, and he was briefly a restricted free agent before inking a new deal.

The 24-year-old made his mark with the Bruins in his second NHL campaign, recording 15 points and averaging over 16 minutes per night in 61 regular-season games before suiting up for another 11 during Boston's playoff run.
