Let’s rephrase that sentence a little bit: in this day in age, a fourth line pest like Zac Rinaldo is worth a third round draft pick according to the Boston Bruins.
Just a few days after new GM Don Sweeney, President Cam Neely and the rest of the front office created chaos with the trades of Milan Lucic, Dougie Hamilton and their selections at 13-15 at Friday’s first round of the Entry Draft, the Bruins announced the acquisition of Rinaldo in exchange for a 2017 third round pick.
Rinaldo has two years left on his current deal worth $850,000 according to General Fanager.
