Gemel-Smith

Boston Bruins‘ 5th year center Gemel Smith(29) played a few more NHL games after being claimed on waivers from draft club Dallas Stars (4th round of the 2012 draft, #104 overall), where he scored 2 goals and an assists in 14 contests.

He didn’t have any points before being reassigned to affiliate Providence Bruins with a couple shots, hits and takeaways but was a -3 rating in three team victories.

Since reporting he has a goal and an assist in 3 AHL games, his first since the 2016/2017 season as a third year player.

He posted career high totals in the minors during that session (12-21-33).

A prolific scorer through three seasons of the OHL with Owen Sound Attack and London Knights, he was also a member of the under 18 Canadian club that won the 2012 Hlinka Memorial Cup.

With 80 games of experience in the big league (11-9-20), the 24-year old still has a little way to go to prove he should stick, but is also set to become a third time restricted free agent on a one-way deal, so will need to step it up.
