Signs two-year pact
Wotherspoon agreed to terms on a two-year, $2 million contract with the Penguins on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
Wotherspoon provides Pittsburgh with another option on the left side of the defense and comes in very cheap for the rebuilding club. In 55 regular-season games last year, the 27-year-old British Columbia native registered one goal and six helpers while delivering 75 hits. Between the relatively untested Vladislav Kolyachonok and the underwhelming Ryan Graves, Wotherspoon could find himself playing second-pairing minutes alongside Kris Letang (heart) this season.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Wotherspoon recorded eight assists, 31 PIM, 67 blocked shots and 84 hits across 41 regular-season appearances in 2023-24. If he plays regularly for the Bruins in the upcoming season, he might be a good source of hits and PIM, but there's a good chance he'll spend a fair amount of time as a healthy scratch. For that reason, you would need to be in an especially deep league to find value in him over alternative options at defense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Projected healthy scratch Thursday
Wotherspoon remained on the ice after the morning skate, per Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald, which suggests he might be scratched Thursday versus the Islanders if Derek Forbort, who has been dealing with a lower-body injury, is good to return.
ANALYSIS
Forbort is probable to play Thursday, but a determination isn't expected to come until the pregame warmups. Wotherspoon has an assist in three contests with Boston this season. He's also contributed an assist in six outings with AHL Providence in 2023-24.
