Vladislav Kolyachonok looking to find a regular home on Bruins’ blue line

Vladislav Kolyachonok is no stranger to packing his bags and traversing the continent to follow his hockey dreams.

The fleet-footed defenseman only turned 24 years old in May. But, the former Panthers’ second-round pick (2019) has already played for six different NHL teams.

“It’s hockey. It’s a business, right,” Kolyachonok said Wednesday following practice at TD Garden. “So not everything we can control. But I always try to be my best and stay with it.”

The Bruins stand as the sixth team that Kolyachonok will skate for — with Boston claiming the left-shot D off waivers from the Dallas Stars on Tuesday afternoon.
