Wotherspoon was recalled along with Mason Lohrei and Ian Mitchell to give the Bruins options on their blueline as they will be without Charlie McAvoy (suspension) and Matt Grzelcyk (upper body). Wotherspoon was a fourth-round pick of the New York Islanders in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft and played his first 12 NHL games with the Islanders last season, recording one point (0G / 1A) four penalty minutes, and a +5 plus/minus rating.
Wotherspoon has appeared in 293 AHL games since 2016, but finally made his NHL debut for the Islanders in 2023. He had just one assists in 12 games and signs with the Bruins, where he'll end up back in the AHL to start the 2023-24 season.
Wotherspoon has been recalled to the Islanders for the first time in his career after scoring a goal, 11 assists, 27 PIMs and a +12 plus/minus through 27 games with Bridgeport (AHL). It will be the 25-year-olds NHL debut.
