Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney's trade of team captain Brad Marchand just got a whole lot worse after trade details spark controversy throughout the fan base
The Boston Bruins were brutally active on Friday during the NHL trade deadline, and maybe a little too active for Bruins fans' liking.
The team parted ways with several key faces, including defenseman Brandon Carlo, forwards Justin Brazeau, Charlie Coyle, and that's not all
The Bruins made the bold move of trading away their captain, Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers.
Things get a whole lot worse on the Bruins end part of the Brad Marchand trade
Originally, fans believed a first round draft pick was heading to Boston.
That was until the trade details were published by the Bruins, and they may not receive a first round pick after all.
2027 conditional second-round pick
(will become a 2027 or 2028 first-round draft pick if Florida wins two rounds of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs and Marchand appears in at least 50% of the team's playoff games)
(will become a 2027 or 2028 first-round draft pick if Florida wins two rounds of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs and Marchand appears in at least 50% of the team's playoff games)
According to the trade conditions, the Panthers must win two playoff rounds this year, alongside that, Marchand must appear in at least 50% of the teams' playoff games.
As fans lost hope in Sweeney when the original trade details dropped, you can imagine the outrage he's facing now, that Charlie Coyle and defenseman Brandon Carlo both fetched more trade value individual than longtime member of the team, and their captain Brad Marchand did.
