Marquardt returns to Providence
Left wing Matt Marquardt has been assigned from the Reading Royals of the ECHL today to the Providence Bruins by the parent organization, Providence announced in a team release.
The 22-year-old has struggled mightily this season, with just eight assists in 33 games with Providence between two separate assignments to the Reading. In six ECHL games, Marquardt has a goal and two assists.
The former Columbus draft pick was acquired by Boston in May of 2008 in exchange for defensive prospect Jonathan Sigalet.
Marquardt will likely take the injured Jeff LoVecchio’s spot in the Providence lineup for the time being.
