As the Ottawa Senators continue their journey towards becoming a prominent force in the NHL, they are now confronted with potential salary cap challenges that may lead to the departure of a promising young player.
The hockey world is abuzz with trade rumors, hinting at the possibility of the Senators parting ways with their talented center, Shane Pinto. Interestingly, the Boston Bruins have emerged as potential trade partners in this evolving scenario.
Shane Pinto, currently a restricted free agent, remains ineligible for an offer sheet due to not meeting the required number of games played.
Amidst the ongoing trade talks, reports have surfaced indicating that the Senators have yet to secure a contract extension for Pinto, leaving the door open for a potential trade deal before the upcoming season.
It's worth noting that the Senators are reportedly seeking NHL-ready prospects in exchange for Pinto. Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now has suggested that the Boston Bruins might be considering a move to acquire Pinto, with Fabian Lysell and Johnny Beecher as potential trade assets.
