With nowhere to go in the Bruins‘ system, undrafted, 3rd year pro, goaltender Matt Dalton(30) packs his bags and heads to Russia joining Vityaz Chekhov of the KHL for 2011/2012.
The Bruins decided to not give him a qualifying offer. He’s been mostly uneven in between the pipes for the last couple of seasons with the P-Bruins so that wasn’t surprising.
Providence should make a big Calder Cup playoff bid this year (they’ve missed it two straight seasons) with Anton Khudobin getting signed.
