With less than $5 million in salary cap space and only 16 NHL players currently under contract, the team will need to explore cost-effective free agents or pursue trades to manage their cap space.
Given this context, it is advisable for the Bruins to move on from the idea of acquiring Pierre-Luc Dubois. The 24-year-old center does not align well with the current team dynamics and poses a high-risk investment for the franchise. Instead, the Bruins can explore other options, perhaps even within the Winnipeg Jets organization, considering players like Connor Hellebuyck or Mark Scheifele.
During the Bruins' end-of-the-season press conference, Sweeney acknowledged the need for roster changes and emphasized the importance of the team's core players stepping up, irrespective of whether or not key figures like Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci return.
