Nick Foligno signs 2 year deal with Boston Bruins

The Bruins signed their third left-shot forward to the roster Wednesday adding 33-year-old Nick Foligno, a long-time Columbus Blue Jacket and Ottawa Senator, who finished 2020-21 with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Earlier in his career, Foligno scored more than 25 goals in a season twice, but he’s become much more of a defensive-minded forward with occasional offense now. He had seven goals and 13 assists in 49 games split between Columbus and Toronto in 2020-21.

Foligno went to the Leafs at the trade deadline last year as Toronto hoped he’d provide veteran leadership after spending six seasons as the Blue Jackets captain. They gave up a first-round pick for him. The son of former Maple Leafs winger Mike Foligno has amassed 203 goals and 486 points in his career.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
