According to several reliable sources within the NHL, this rumor was quickly debunked and dismissed. It claimed that the Bruins had developed a strong interest in Dmitry Orlov, another skilled defenseman, to the extent that they were experiencing regrets about acquiring Hampus Lindholm, despite his impressive performance during the previous season. As a result of this supposed remorse, the Bruins were reportedly contemplating making Lindholm available for trade in the NHL market.
However, the credibility of this rumor took a hit on Saturday with the revelation that Orlov will be entering the NHL free agent market starting July 1.
