The Bruins claimed Patera off waivers from the Vancouver Canucks late in training camp. He had one practice (Friday) in Boston and didn’t appear in a preseason game. If they clear waivers, Boston will have a logjam of goaltenders in the AHL. Providence would have Petera, Bussi, Michael DiPietro, Ryan Bischel, Kasimir Kaskisuo, Nolan Maier.

However, now that the Bruins have signed star goalie Jeremy Swayman to his new eight-year, $66 million contract, both Bussi and Patera are hitting the waiver wire. Goaltenders Brandon Bussi and Jiri Patera have both been placed on waivers by the #bruins following the Jeremy Swayman extension.
