Stempniak is coming off a 2017-18 season in which he was limited to just 37 games with the Carolina Hurricanes. He tallied three goals and nine points.

The 35-year-old had a brief stint with the Bruins during the 2015-16 season after being acquired from the New Jersey Devils at the trade deadline. He scored three goals and added seven assists in just 19 games.

Winnik enters camp after playing the 2017-18 season with the Minnesota Wild. In 81 games last year, the 33-year-old recorded six goals and 23 points.
