Jordan Harris, a defenseman recently signed by the Boston Bruins, was previously not given a qualifying offer by the Columbus Blue Jackets. At 25 years old, he signed a one-year, $825,000 deal with Boston, expressing gratitude for their interest. Originally drafted by the Montreal Canadiens, Harris experienced a trade to Columbus, which taught him about the hockey business. Excited to play for his hometown team, he has a deep connection with the area and its hockey history, demonstrating eagerness to contribute to the Bruins' success.
"Boston seemed most interested through the process, which is great. You want to be a part of an organization that wants you as a player. It goes both ways. I'm definitely real excited and fortunate and happy to be here."
"I'm super excited, obviously, being from Haverhill and knowing the history of the team - I've skated here for years at Warrior, I skated here in college and John McLean, the skills coach, I've been skating with him since I was 10. I'm just really, really excited and proud, especially being from Haverhill."
