Hockey Players who Played for Red Wings and Bruins
My guess is you’ve searched this page out because you’re playing the Immaculate Grid.
If I’m right, that also means that today’s grid is asking for players who have played for both the Detroit Red Wings and the Boston Bruins.
And, I’m also guessing that you’re a little stuck on this particular square and you’re looking for a little help to keep your grid immaculate. Sound about right so far?
Well, good news, I’m here to help.
I’ve already done the research and have put together a list of well-known stars along with some more “under-the-radar” players that could land you a low rarity score.
Tyler Bertuzzi
Tyler Bertuzzi, a Canadian-born player, has made a significant impact in the NHL with his energetic and skillful style of play. Drafted by the Detroit Red Wings in the second round, 58th overall, in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, Bertuzzi has developed into a key player for the team.
His ability to contribute both offensively and physically made him a valuable asset to the Red Wings. Bertuzzi’s progression in the NHL has been marked by his consistent effort, tenacity, and willingness to engage in the tough areas of the ice, which has endeared him to both teammates and fans. He earned his first NHL All-Star Game selection in 2020.
After 7 seasons in Detroit, Bertuzzi was traded to the Boston Bruins for a 1st and 4th round draft pick. His time in Boston was short-lived however, signing as a free agent with the Maple Leafs just four months later.
Austin Czarnik
Austin Czarnik, an American center, currently plays for the Detroit Red Wings of the NHL. Czarnik went undrafted in the NHL but has played with several teams including the Bruins, Flames, Islanders, and Seattle Kraken.
Czarnik made his NHL debut with the Bruins in the 2016–17 season and scored his first NHL goal against Henrik Lundqvist of the New York Rangers. After his tenure with the Bruins, he joined the Calgary Flames in 2018 on a two-year contract.
Czarnik later signed a two-year deal with the New York Islanders in 2020, before moving to the Seattle Kraken in the 2021–22 season, and finally signing a two-year contract with the Detroit Red Wings in 2022.
