As the NHL Draft approaches on June 28-29, closely followed by the opening of free agency on July 1st, the Boston Bruins are fully committed to retaining their valuable acquisitions from the 2023 NHL Trade Deadline.
Furthermore, the Bruins face the challenge of addressing several impending unrestricted free agents, including Dmitry Orlov, Patrice Bergeron, and David Krejci, in addition to signing three restricted free agents.
With only $4.162 million available in cap space, Sweeney is diligently exploring potential trades to create the necessary flexibility, with players such as Linus Ullmark, Matt Grzelcyk, Derek Forbort, and Taylor Hall emerging as possible trade assets in ongoing discussions.
