TSN is reporting that the Bruins have traded forward Marco Sturm to the Los Angeles Kings for a conditional draft pick.
Sturm, 32, agreed to the deal by waiving his no-trade clause. He has not played this year after having off-season ACL and MCL knee surgery, but returned to practice with the Bruins this week. He is currently two-to-three weeks away from returning to game action.
Sturm is an unrestricted free agent at end of this season, and carries a cap hit of $3.5 million.
The winger returns to California, where he began his career with the San Jose Sharks and played his first seven seasons before being dealt to Boston as part of the Joe Thornton trade in 2005.
