Rotowire
Viel was promoted from AHL Providence on Monday.
Viel's elevation to the NHL roster comes as Mark Kastelic sustained a lower-body injury in Saturday's matchup with the Blues.

Bruins' Jeffrey Viel: Signs two-year deal
Rotowire
Viel inked a two-year, $1.55 million contract with Boston on Monday.
Viel's deal will convert to a one-way contract in year two, which is a good sign for the Bruins' long-term confidence in the winger. Still, Viel is already 27 years of age and has played in just 49 NHL games across three seasons with the Sharks. None of those appearances came last season, with Viel spending the entire campaign in the minors with AHL Manitoba. With the Moose, Viel notched 17 goals and 23 assists in 69 regular-season contests.

Viel (upper body) will remain unavailable ahead of Thursday's clash with San Jose, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Viel has played in just four NHL games this season in which he has failed to register a point while notching just four shots. At this point, Viel may be hard-pressed to crack the lineup even once cleared to play. In his stead, Adam Raska will make his 2022-23 season debut in Thursday's contest.
