4 Players The Bruins May Look At Trading To Get Mark Scheifele
A stark reality confronts the Boston Bruins as the specter of Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci's summer retirements casts a shadow over their center depth. Their illustrious careers fittingly concluded, but the aftermath is a steeper climb towards contention.
As discussions hum with anticipation, the Bruins appear poised to secure an impactful, cost-effective centerman for the top-6 lineup. Elias Lindholm's name is whispered, though Calgary's stance remains uncertain.
Contrastingly, Winnipeg's Mark Scheifele offers a more definite narrative. With the Jets in transition, the spotlight intensifies as they bid farewell to Blake Wheeler and Pierre-Luc Dubois.
Nick Goss of NBC Sports Boston suggests Jake DeBrusk becomes trade material sans a contract extension, while Linus Ullmark might yield if Jeremy Swayman impresses as the Bruins' starter. Defensemen Matt Grzelcyk and Derek Forbort, on expiring contracts, hold intrigue.
With Scheifele in focus, the allure of his $6.125 million AAV and his contract's final year makes for potential cap juggling.
Amidst uncertainty, the Bruins recall defying odds. The upcoming season remains an enigma, yet a new chapter beckons�one they're poised to script with potential aplomb.
