Multiple Players Surface As Trade Candidates For The Bruins
Amidst a challenging stretch for the Boston Bruins, their recent struggles have seen them drop four consecutive games and five out of the last six. Notably, the team's scoring has taken a hit, averaging a mere 2.1 goals per game and plummeting to 1.6 goals per game in their last five losses. The concerning trend includes managing just one goal in four of their last seven games.
Delving into potential candidates for changes, Matt Grzelcyk emerges as a player to watch. In the final year of his contract, Grzelcyk's below-par performance, with only one goal in 20 games, puts him in the spotlight for a potential move. Boston's desire to free up salary space adds to the likelihood of Grzelcyk being traded.
Another player facing uncertainty is Jake DeBrusk, amid a disappointing contract year marked by subpar performance. The Bruins may consider trading him to strengthen their roster, possibly at the center or on defense.
Adding to the roster dynamics is
Fabian Lysell, touted as one of the Bruins' top prospects. However, concerns about his development might prompt Boston to explore a trade, seeking immediate reinforcements.
As the Bruins navigate these considerations, Wednesday brings a crucial matchup against the Buffalo Sabres at the KeyBank Center, offering an opportunity for the team to turn the tide in this challenging season.
