The Boston Bruins today assigned center Martin St. Pierre to the Providence Bruins and placed forward Patrice Bergeron, who suffered a concussion on Dec. 20, on injured reserve.
St. Pierre saw action in all five games during the Bruins' recent road trip since being recalled on December 20, and recorded one goal and one assist. His first goal as a Bruin came on a shorthanded tally against the Penguins on Tuesday night. The leading scorer for the P-Bruins this season, St. Pierre has registered a 10-25=35 line in 30 games. His 25 assists lead the team and his 10 goals rank tied for second.
St. Pierre, 25, has appeared in 26 NHL games in his career -- 21 with Chicago, five with Boston -- and has tallied two goals and four assists. Signed as a free agent by the Blackhawks on Nov. 12, 2005, St. Pierre was acquired by the Bruins on July 24, 2008 for Pascal Pelletier.
In 31 games this season, Bergeron compiled a 4-14=18 line and has 76 goals and 131 assists in 270 career NHL games. He was injured during the Bruins/Hurricanes game on Saturday, Dec. 20.
