The Boston Bruins signed Lee Stempniak to a PTO before their trip to China.
Many thought the former Bruin would be able to make his way onto the roster, however Stempniak remains on his PTO.
The interesting part is that Stempniak continues to practice with the Bruins as he's stated he would prefer to sign in Boston than look after other opportunities.
Head coach Bruce Cassidy gave an update regarding the situation on Tuesday and he says it's not like Stempniak will be signed anytime soon.
It's an interesting decision considering Cassidy has said the 12th and 13th forward spots still haven't really been decided yet.
In any case, it doesn't look like Stempniak is part of that battle anymore.
Do you think it's a good idea for the Bruins to move on from Stempniak?
