---|---|---|
March 8, 2024 | Wotherspoon inked a one-year, $800,000 contract extension with Boston on Friday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports. - Wotherspoon had been splitting the sixth defenseman role with Kevin Shattenkirk for much of the season but injuries to Hampus Lindholm (lower body) and Derek Forbort (undisclosed) have seen Wotherspoon pressed into service more frequently. | None |
Feb. 22, 2024 | Wotherspoon logged an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and five PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Oilers. - Wotherspoon had an eventful second period, fighting Corey Perry and then helping out on a Jake DeBrusk tally after the penalty expired. The 26-year-old Wotherspoon could be in the lineup for the rest of the Bruins' road trip, as Hampus Lindholm (undisclosed) is not traveling with the team and Matt Grzelcyk (lower body) was injured Wednesday. Wotherspoon has four helpers, 17 shots on net, 18 PIM, 52 hits and 45 blocked shots through 24 outings, so he's unlikely to be very useful in fantasy. | None |
Jan. 6, 2024 | Wotherspoon was recalled from AHL Providence on Saturday, per the NHL media site. - According to Eric Russo of the Bruins' official site, Wotherspoon was paired with Kevin Shattenkirk during Saturday's morning skate. If Wotherspoon doesn't play Saturday versus Tampa Bay, Mason Lohrei will be in the lineup after undergoing some dental work. Wotherspoon has two assists, nine shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and 16 hits in 10 NHL outings this season. | None |
Jan. 5, 2024 | Wotherspoon was sent down to AHL Providence on Friday, per CapFriendly. - Wotherspoon has served as a healthy scratch for the last two games with Boston. He could be recalled again as an insurance body for Saturday's matchup with Tampa Bay. | None |
Jan. 3, 2024 | Wotherspoon was reassigned to AHL Providence on Wednesday, according to Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal. - Wotherspoon has a goal and five points in 19 contests with Providence this season. He's also registered two assists in 10 games with Boston. The 26-year-old was a healthy scratch for Tuesday's 4-1 win over Columbus. | None |
Dec. 27, 2023 | Wotherspoon was recalled by the Bruins on Wednesday. - Wotherspoon is expected to skate on the third pairing during Wednesday's matchup with the Sabres. The 26-year-old defender has picked up one assist through eight top-level appearances this year. | None |
Dec. 24, 2023 | Wotherspoon was dropped to AHL Providence on Sunday, per CapFriendly. - Wotherspoon has one point in eight NHL games and has been held scoreless in six straight appearances. He'll likely be back with the big club before Wednesday's tilt in Buffalo. | None |
Dec. 14, 2023 | Wotherspoon was recalled from AHL Providence on Thursday. - Wotherspoon has a goal and five points in 19 contests with Providence this season. He also has an assist, four hits and six blocks in three games with Boston. The Bruins put Charlie McAvoy on the injured reserve list in a corresponding move. | None |
Nov. 10, 2023 | Wotherspoon was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday. - Wotherspoon was recalled Wednesday only to be a healthy scratch Thursday against the Islanders. The defenseman had an assist in three games with the Bruins before his demotion. | None |
Nov. 8, 2023 | Wotherspoon was called up from AHL Providence on Wednesday, per CapFriendly. - Wotherspoon was sent down Tuesday in a paper move. He'll likely be on the third pairing Thursday versus the Islanders unless Derek Forbort (lower body) returns to action. | None |
Nov. 7, 2023 | Wotherspoon was reassigned to AHL Providence on Tuesday, per CapFriendly. - Wotherspoon has an assist in three NHL games this season, and he's added six blocked shots and four hits. It's possible Derek Forbort (lower body) could be ready for Thursday's game versus the Islanders, but the Bruins will still need to call up at least one defenseman for that contest. | None |
Nov. 1, 2023 | Wotherspoon was promoted from the minors Wednesday. - Wotherspoon saw action in 12 games with the Islanders last season in which he recorded one assist, 10 shots and eight hits while averaging 13:20 of ice time. Due to various blue-line absences, it will likely come down to Wotherspoon, Mason Lohrei and Ian Mitchell for two spots in the lineup against Toronto on Thursday. | None |
Oct. 3, 2023 | Wotherspoon was placed on waivers Tuesday, Chris Johnston of TSN reports. - Wotherspoon contributed one assist, seven blocked shots and eight hits in 12 games with the Islanders last season. He also recorded one goal and 12 points in 27 AHL contests with Bridgeport during the 2022-23 campaign. If he clears, the 26-year-old defender will report to AHL Providence. | None |
July 1, 2023 | Wotherspoon signed a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Saturday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports. - Wotherspoon had one assist, seven blocked shots and eight hits in 12 games with the Islanders last season. He also collected 12 points in 27 AHL contests with Bridgeport during the 2022-23 campaign. Wotherspoon will probably report to the minors for the start of next season. | None |
March 6, 2023 | Wotherspoon has been a healthy scratch for 17 straight games. - The Islanders are in a battle for one of the final two playoff spots in the Eastern Conference, which hasn't allowed any room for a rookie defenseman to have any on-the-job training. The fact that the team doesn't seem to mind keeping Wotherspoon wasting away in the press box rather than playing in the AHL might tell you all you need to know about how they feel about his future. He would be playing somewhere if he were a top prospect for the organization. | None |
Feb. 11, 2023 | Wotherspoon was a healthy scratch for the eighth straight game Saturday versus the Canadiens. - This scratch was also the 10th time in 11 games that Wotherspoon has been relegated to the bench. One could argue that it might be much more beneficial for the young defender to play every day in the AHL rather than once in a blue moon in the NHL. On the season, Wotherspoon has one point, an assist, with a rating of plus-5 in 12 games for the Islanders. | None |
Jan. 29, 2023 | Wotherspoon was a healthy scratch for the fourth straight game Saturday versus the Golden Knights, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Coach Lane Lambert has had a revolving door in regard to the sixth defenseman for the team. The season started with Robin Salo in the role; then it went to Sebastian Aho, Wotherspoon, and now Samuel Bolduc. Aho has solidified himself as that sixth defender when the defensive corps is healthy, something that is expected to be the case when the Islanders return to action on Feb. 6. If that's the case, then Wotherspoon would find himself remaining a healthy scratch as the seventh defender or back in the AHL if the team feels it's better for his development to be playing every day. | None |
Jan. 16, 2023 | Wotherspoon only has one point, an assist, in his first 10 NHL games. - Wotherspoon has been a surprise everyday player for the team since late December. Adam Pelech (head) is still out of the lineup, and coach Lane Lambert seems to have lost faith in Robin Salo due to several defensive miscues. Wotherspoon will see himself back in the AHL or on the bench once Pelech, who has begun skating with the team, returns to action. | None |
Dec. 27, 2022 | Wotherspoon was recalled by the Islanders on Tuesday, per the NHL media site. - Wotherspoon is expected to skate on the second pairing Tuesday after briefly heading to AHL Bridgeport for the NHL's holiday break. He made his NHL debut Friday versus Florida, collecting two shots, a hit and one block in 14:47 of ice time. | None |
Dec. 24, 2022 | Wotherspoon was reassigned to AHL Bridgeport on Saturday, per CapFriendly. - Wotherspoon played Friday versus the Panthers, logging two shots on goal and 14:47 of ice time. It's possible he's recalled again to compete with Robin Salo for a depth role following the holiday break. | None |
Dec. 23, 2022 | Wotherspoon was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Friday. - Wotherspoon was waived before the start of the season and sent to the minors, where he had a goal and 12 points in 27 AHL games. He will likely be a depth defenseman at this time. | None |
Sept. 21, 2022 | Wotherspoon signed a one-year contract with the Islanders on Wednesday. - Wotherspoon spent the entirety of the 2021-22 season with AHL Bridgeport, picking up 24 points through 57 contests. The 25-year-old defender has yet to make his NHL debut and shouldn't be expected to do so in 2022-23. | None |
March 5, 2022 | Wotherspoon was promoted from AHL Bridgeport on Saturday. - Wotherspoon has recorded 15 points over 44 appearances for AHL Bridgeport this season. The 24-year-old has yet to make his NHL debut. | None |
