In a surprising move, the Boston Bruins have placed Milan Lucic on Long-Term Injured Reserve (LTIR), freeing up some much-needed cap space. This development has ignited speculation within the hockey community that the Bruins may seize the opportunity to sign Danton Heinen.
Heinen, who signed a professional tryout (PTO) with the Bruins during the offseason, has been patiently waiting in the wings due to the team's previous cap constraints.
With Lucic's LTIR designation potentially clearing the way, fans are eager to see if Heinen will finally secure a more permanent place on the roster and contribute to the Bruins' upcoming campaigns.
