Trade talks being to loom involving the Boston Bruins acquiring Toronto Maple Leafs' captain Auston Matthews.
The Boston Bruins have evidently turned things around this 2025/26 NHL regular season following their absolute lackluster start.

And a new recent by Heavy.com's Nestor Quixtan has suggested the Boston Bruins look toward an alternative franchise player.
New report links Boston Bruins to acquiring Toronto Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews
In this recent report, Quixtan unveils that the Boston Bruins could look to land a true number-one center.
This is due to the fact that it is evident there is a gap in the Bruins' top-line position.
He continues to unveil that despite there being no indication that Toronto would be willing to depart with their captain, things could possibly change if the Leafs undergo a horrible season.
"Enter Toronto Maple Leafs captain Auston Matthews. There is no hint of anything whatsoever indicating that Toronto would be willing to move its franchise player. But would that change if the Maple Leafs completely flamed out this season?
After all, a playoff miss would be the worst thing that could happen to the organization this season. So, as a thought experiment, what if the Bruins mortgaged the farm to get Matthews?"
