Recent reports surfaces that suggests the Boston Bruins have emerged as frontrunners to acquire top UFA from an Original-Six organization.
According to recent reports, the Boston Bruins are reportedly interested in acquiring a top unrestricted free agent if he hits the free-agent market this offseason.
That top Unrestricted Free Agent being 29-year old forward Ryan Donato from the Chicago Blackhawks organization.
Ryan Donato had an outstanding season for the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2024-25 season. In 80 games, the Massachusetts native set new career highs with 31 goals, 31 assists, and for a total of 62 points.
Certainly something that will help his case as he is now a pending unrestricted free agent.

According to reports, If the Blackhawks are unable to get Donato signed to a new deal and he hits the free-agent market this summer, the Boston Bruins will be one of many teams interested in acquiring the forward.
After a failed season by the Boston Bruins it's likely that they will try to add to their forward group this offseason.
Making Donato the perfect player for the Bruins, as he could provide a much needed boost in their middle six.
Along with that he can also play both down the middles and on the wing, something the Bruins need.
After having a career year, Don Sweeney should be all over Donato if he hits the free agent market, especially if he was being truthful about entering a retool instead of a rebuild.
