BREAKING: NHL executive states a trade is set to happen with the Bruins

Although no official reports have validated these talks, it must be noted that, at this stage, they remain purely speculative.

However, with the potential retirements of esteemed veterans Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci looming, it comes as no surprise that the Bruins might be in the market for a skilled center.

Nevertheless, it is highly unlikely that the Islanders would entertain parting ways with Pageau unless they secure a top-tier goal scorer in return.

The value exchange must be substantial for such a pivotal player.

As the trade rumors continue to swirl within the hockey community, fans find themselves eagerly awaiting further developments. Will this potential trade materialize and reshape the roster dynamics of both teams? Only time will tell.
