Boston Bruins set to steal a player from the Edmonton Oilers
The Boston Bruins need help with goal-scoring depth, and their help is currently without a contract.
He is a former Edmonton Oiler and Seattle Kraken, Kailer Yamamoto, who could use a fresh start in the NHL.
Yamamato's last contract with the Kraken was a 1-year term, for $1.5 Million and could be an affordable option to add as a PTO.
This way, the Bruins might find another forward for the core group, who could find a spot in the middle six.
The Kraken didn't offer Yamamoto a contract extension and became a free agent on July 1st.
And while most teams are buttoning up their current lineup, there's always room for PTO's.
In 59 games with the Kraken last season, he scored 16 points( 8 G, 8 A) and could be a great option for the Bruins.
