The Bruins made a roster move this afternoon, claiming forward Gemel Smith on waivers after he was cut loose by the Dallas Stars.
Who is Gemel Smith?
Smith is 24 years old. He was drafted by Dallas in the fourth round in 2012, 104th overall. He played his junior hockey in Owen Sound and London, where he put up pretty solid offensive numbers.
He made his NHL debut with the Stars in the 2016-2017 season, where he put up three goals and three assists in 17 games.
He’s never played more than 46 NHL games in a season, with that number coming in 2017-2018; this season, he had played 14 games prior to being waived.
