Bruins star will likely hit the trade block this summer

The Bruins will be entering free agency this summer with a ton of cap space as they will have $21.7 million available to spend and it looks like it might be even more than that.

According to insider Lyle Richardson, there is a strong possibility that the Bruins move goaltender Linus Ullmark this summer. The Bruins netminder was surrounded by trade rumors at the deadline and even vetoed a trade to the Kings due to his 16 team no trade list.

The smart decision for the Bruins would be to move Ullmark since they will have to extend Jeremy Swayman which will likely be a big contract. Additionally, with Ullmark's contract ending next season, it would be a bad move if they end up losing the goalie to free agency and don't get anything in return.

The Bruins will have a busy summer but there are more important things at hand for the time being with the playoffs starting in a few weeks and hopes of making a serious run.
