A major development has surfaced in the Boston Bruins organization acquiring a former first-round draft pick in a huge off-season trade, and it's shocking.
The Boston Bruins' general manager, Don Sweeney, and the organization's front office has undoubtedly undergone major moves to bolster their roster this offseason.
This included multiple additions to their roster, a few of them are Viktor Arvidsson, Tanner Jeannot, Sean Kuraly, Matej Blumel, and Alex Steeves.
With these acquisitions, this Original Six franchise has gained more depth within their offence, however, it is also fair to state that the Bruins could benefit from another skilled winger in their middle six before the offseason is over.
With this being said, the Boston Bruins may have found a skill forward who could fit this position perfectly.
The Boston Bruins organization should seriously consider the Columbus Blue Jackets' forward, Yegor Chinakhov
Yegor Chinakhov, an extremely skilled winger for the Columbus Blue Jackets, may just be the perfect candidate for the Boston Bruins.
Chinakhov's agent, Shumi Babaev, recently announced that the young forward has requested a trade from Columbus.
Following his trade request, the Blue Jackets' general manager, Don Waddell, also admitted to The Athletics' Aaron Portzline that they know about Chinakhov's trade request and have already spoke with him regarding it.
Chinakhov also revealed himself:
«Yegor Chinakhov:
I had some misunderstandings with the coach during the season. Now I would be glad to have a trade. I would like to move to a different location.
Will I return to Russia? As long as I can play in the NHL, I will keep developing here @BlueJacketsNHL»

Given the Boston Bruins' need for young skilled talent, Chinakhov is a perfect match that the organization should take a chance on.
Additionally, with the Bruins in the midst of retooling, it would only make sense for them to push for a skilled first-rounder, such as Chinakhov.
Do you think the Boston Bruins' general manager, Don Sweeney, will pursue Yegor Chinakhov this offseason?
