Elliotte Friedman Delivers A Shocking Comment Concerning The Boston Bruins
The Boston Bruins are leaving no stone unturned in their efforts to secure the services of impending unrestricted free agent Tyler Bertuzzi. According to Sportsnet NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman's recent column, the Bruins are actively exploring various avenues to ensure Bertuzzi remains a valuable part of their roster moving forward.
The speculation surrounding Bertuzzi's next contract took an intriguing twist when James Stewart, a producer for 98.5 The Sports Hub, reported that the talented forward could command a substantial salary of up to $7 million per season. However, some industry insiders, like Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now, believe that Bertuzzi's market value may not reach such exorbitant heights just yet. Murphy stated that most teams interested in Bertuzzi are grappling with salary cap constraints, making it challenging to strike such a deal.
Interestingly, the same source also suggested that the Bruins might address their financial situation by actively shopping defenseman Hampus Lindholm. With a hefty eight-year, $52 million contract and a $6.5 million cap hit, the 29-year-old blueliner seems to have become a source of regret for the Bruins.
While the Bruins are focused on retaining key assets, their efforts extend beyond Bertuzzi. Rumors have emerged that they are open to trading Taylor Hall, a seasoned forward who could offer substantial value to interested teams. Furthermore, the Bruins organization seems particularly fixated on Dmitry Orlov, another talented player.
