Bruins, Sturm Reach A Deal For A Multi Year, Contract Extension

Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced
today that the club and left-winger Marco Sturm have
agreed to a multi-year contract extension. Per team
policy, terms of the deal will not be disclosed.

Sturm, 28, hails from Dingolfing, Germany, and was
acquired by the Bruins on November 30, 2005, along
with Brad Stuart and Wayne Primeau, from the San Jose
Sharks in exchange for Joe Thornton.

Thus far, this season, he has scored 20 goals and
registered 11 assists in 54 games. Last season, in
51 games with the Bruins, Sturm tallied 23 goals
and 20 assists.

“Marco is a dedicated, hardworking, motivated player who uses his speed and skill on a nightly basis to help our team,” said Bruins Head Coach Dave Lewis. “I am
excited to have him in the mix for the foreseeable future.”

Prior to coming to the Bruins near the halfway point
of last season, Sturm spent seven and a half campaigns
with the San Jose Sharks. While with San Jose, Sturm
played 553 games, scoring 128 goals and 145 assists.
The Sharks acquired him with their first pick (21st overall)
in the 1996 NHL Player Entry Draft.

Despite being traded during the last campaign, Sturm’s best
statistical NHL season came in 2005-2006, as he scored 29 goals
and tallied 30 assists for 59 total points (combined between
his play in San Jose and Boston).

Sturm is an accomplished player at the international level,
and has represented Germany six times: 1995 World Junior
Championships (6 games, 4-6-10), 1997 World Championships
(8 games, 1-1-2), 2001 World Championships (7 games, 4-1-5),
2003 World Cup (4 games, 2-0-2), 1998 Olympics (2 games, 0-0-0)
and the 2002 Olympics (5 games, 0-1-1). In addition, Sturm was
named to the 2006 German Olympic team, but he did not play
due to a shoulder injury.
