The two teams are currently headed in different directions. While the Jets are contemplating shaking things up, possibly even considering a rebuild, the Bruins have no interest in embarking on a rebuilding phase. Instead, their goal is to maintain their competitiveness and make another strong push for the Stanley Cup in the upcoming season.
According to preliminary reports, the Bruins have shown openness to discussing the possibility of trading players such as Brandon Carlo or Jake DeBrusk, both of whom might catch the attention of the Jets. Scheifele, who had an impressive season with 68 points in 81 games, still has one year remaining on his contract, earning $6.1 million. It's important to note that he possesses a limited no-trade clause, granting him the ability to avoid being traded to ten specific teams, although it seems unlikely that Boston is on that list.
Given the potential departures of key players like Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, it's clear that the Bruins will be in the market for one or possibly more centers to fill the void. This summer, their focus will likely be on securing at least one quality center to strengthen their roster.
