Overview
- The Boston Bruins announced Sunday that they signed 23-year-old Attilio Biasca to a two-year contract running through 2027–28 with a reported $980,000 NHL cap hit.
- Media outlets reported the deal is two-way with an $85,000 AHL salary and includes signing and performance bonuses, though those specific financial figures came from secondary reporting rather than the team announcement.
- Biasca earned wider notice after a breakout 2025–26 season with HC Fribourg-Gotteron, when he scored 15 goals and 27 points and helped the club win its first Swiss National League title.
- He also played for Switzerland at the 2026 IIHF World Championship, skating alongside NHL players Nico Hischier and Timo Meier and recording one goal and two assists in 10 games, which increased NHL scouting interest.
- The signing is Boston’s first external roster addition of the early offseason and gives the organization a low-risk option for AHL depth in Providence while the front office manages multiple pending free agents and cap decisions.
