Leaked details revealed Boston Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney turned down a blockbuster trade

With the NHL season basically about to begin, it was just revealed that a massive trade proposal was made from the New York Islanders to the Boston Bruins.

At the NHL draft, it was clear the New York Islanders wanted Long Island Native James Hagnes.

Leading all the way up to the NHL draft, there were rumors that the New York Islanders were in talks with the Boston Bruins to acquire the 7th overall pick.

During the documentary, it was revealed that Islanders General Manager Mathieu Darche wanted to package both draft picks to get something else.

The camera cuts to Darche on the phone talking to someone, and answers with «Sweens, how are you?»

To the right of Darche was assistant general manager Ryan Bowness, and after the call hung up he said, «He knows who you want to take, obviously so.»

Moments after that, Darche's phone rings again and Bownees says, «There he is.» The «he» in this context would be Sweeney. Darche picks it up, and simply says «Oh ok, thank you. Okay, bye.»

Right after that you heard Adam Sandlers voice from his cameo during the draft, announcing that the Bruins had selected Hagens.

The New York Islanders were willing to part ways with both first round picks they had in order to move up and draft Hagens, but the Boston Bruins wanted a NHL ready player that would immediately make an impact, and it seems the Islanders did not offer that.

After striking out on making a deal to get Hagens at the draft, Darche stated, «Well, we're picking at 16.»

This is such a great look for the Bruins, especially with Sweeney having a bad track record during the drafts, that another team wanted a player the Bruins selected so badly.

During his next season at Boston College, Hagens is going to be the face for them.
