With Patrice Bergeron's retirement, the Boston Bruins now seek to strengthen their center position. They've set their sights on two players, Mark Scheifele from the Winnipeg Jets and Elias Lindholm from the Calgary Flames.

However, Lindholm appears to be the more appealing choice for the Bruins due to his fit as a skilled two-way centerman and a more affordable contract at $4.85 million compared to Scheifele's $6.125 million.

The Bruins are carefully managing their budget this season, making Lindholm's contract even more attractive. While Scheifele is available for a potential trade after not re-signing with the Jets, Lindholm's future remains uncertain as he evaluates his options.

It's possible that the Flames might consider trading him, but they seem more inclined to stay competitive rather than undergo a full rebuild.

As the Bruins strategize, they may consider offering Trent Frederic as part of the trade package to acquire Lindholm.

However, the fans eagerly await the team's decision as the new season approaches, knowing that securing a strong center presence is crucial following Bergeron's exceptional career.
