Bruins GM Don Sweeney will have a busy summer ahead as a big portion of the Bruins lineup is set to become free- agents this summer.
Boston will have $20.9 million in available cap space to try and replace or sign these players entering free agency. The players set to become UFAs are DeBrusk, Derek, Forbort, Matt Grzelcyk, Kevin Shattenkirk, Pat Maroon, Danton Heinen, JVR, while Jeremy Swayman and Jesper Boqvist will be restricted free agents.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out since this is a solid amount of cap space but not when you have 9 spots to fill. Surely some of these players will be re-signed but the questions is which ones and for how much?
