What happened: Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney addressed a busy NHL trade market and identified the team's biggest need heading into the offseason. Sweeney indicated Boston would also consider moving pieces off its current roster given the seller-heavy conditions. The Bruins hold the 23rd overall pick.
Why it matters: How Sweeney works this market will shape Boston's roster for the upcoming 2025-26 season. A stated willingness to both add and subtract signals the Bruins are weighing whether to retool around their core or take a measured step back rather than push all-in.
What to watch: Watch whether Boston keeps or trades the 23rd overall pick and which roster pieces surface as the offseason market develops.
