The Boston Bruins Have Revealed Why This Player Is Set To Be Traded

Amidst the ups and downs of the hockey season, Boston Bruins defenseman Derek Forbort hit a rough patch off the ice last week.

He found himself benched for breaking team rules, missing a crucial meeting because he overslept�a blunder not expected from a seasoned player.

In owning up to his mistake, Forbort remarked,

"It's on me,' he said." However, teammate Jake DeBrusk's supportive words, "You'll get through this,"

offered a silver lining amid the setback.

With insider Jimmy Murphy predicting a trade, Forbort's departure appears imminent, prompting the Bruins to reassess their defensive lineup before the March 8 NHL Trade Deadline.

Given his recent play and now this, I wouldn't be surprised to see Forbort on a new team by the March 8, 3 p.m. ET NHL Trade Deadline.
