A recent reporter posted on social media via 'X' unveiling that the organization will not only be re-signing one player, but two.
Take a look:
«#NHLBruins are re-signing Marat Khusnutdinov and Michael Callahan. Khusnutdinov was set to become an RFA and gets a two-year deal worth $925k per season. Callahan was a Group-6 UFA and comes back on a one-year, two-way deal worth $775k.»
22-year old, Marat Khusnutdinov, who was acquired this past NHL Trade Deadline, has been confirmed to be receiving an extension by the Boston Bruins organization on a two-year deal worth $925k per year.
Meanwhile, 25-year old, Michael Callahan, who was acquired by the Boston Bruins in February of the 2022 NHL season, will be re-signing on a one-year, two-way deal worth $775K.
This just goes to show the Boston Bruins organization has already begun their offseason re-tool, as this Original Six team is dedicated to ensure they become competitors for the 2025/26 NHL season.
