PHOENIX -- Looking to add toughness, the Phoenix Coyotes on Friday acquired enforcer Andrei Nazarov from the Boston Bruins in exchange for a 2002 fifth-round draft pick.
A frequent visitor to the penalty box, Nazarov played in 47 games for the Bruins this season and the left wing had two goals and 145 penalty minutes.
Nazarov, 27, also has played with San Jose, Tampa Bay and Calgary in his career.
The 6-5 native of Chelyasbinsk, Russia, has 43 goals and 66 assists in 447 career games.

Jaja, jetzt wo man mit PJ Stock einen fan-favorite Fighter hat, kann man Nazarov wegtraden...
Ein fünftrunden-Draftpick... auch nicht grad die Welt, was die Bruins für den bekommen haben...
