Bruins flip Sturm to LA; get pick back

So much for?“Sturmie’s Troopers.”

The Bruins traded popular forward Marco Sturm to the Los Angeles Kings in exchange for a conditional draft pick Thursday, according to online reports.

Sturm, who hasn’t played in 2010-11 after undergoing offseason knee surgery, was reportedly dealt in large part because of the B’s short space under the salary cap.

Boston carried a 13-8-2 record into Thursday night’s game against Tampa Bay. They’re at Toronto on Saturday.
