BREAKING: The Boston Bruins Are Possibly Making a Huge Trade Today

Boston Bruins GM Don Sweeney is hustling to fit rookie defenseman Mason Lohrei into the opening night roster ahead of the 5 p.m. ET deadline. An NHL source revealed Sweeney's active pursuit, acknowledging Lohrei's stellar preseason.

Sweeney's urgency was palpable when he and Cam Neely swiftly departed the stage at Media Day. Sweeney confirmed there's one more decision to make before opening night.

In his quest, Sweeney has explored trades for veterans Derek Forbort and Matt Grzelcyk. Interest in Grzelcyk has been noted, but Forbort's fate remains uncertain.

Lohrei, equipped with Providence Bruins gear, remains on the NHL roster. He's eager to play for the Bruins but understands that the salary cap may determine his immediate fate, maintaining optimism about his contributions.
