NHL Insider Reveals The Boston Bruins Are Linked To A Massive Blockbuster Trade
In a season that hasn't quite met our expectations, signs suggest Elias Lindholm might be bidding farewell to Calgary soon.
A few months ago, rumors circulated that he turned down a substantial contract extension—something in the ballpark of 9 million a year for 8 years. However, Lindholm's performance has taken a hit since Gaudreau and Tkachuk left, casting doubt on the Flames offering a similar deal.
With free agency looming next summer, trade speculations are in the air, and talks of a possible deal before this year's deadline are gaining traction.
Injecting a bit of anticipation, the Bruins, grappling with multiple injuries, are actively seeking reinforcements to boost their Stanley Cup chances.
Insider insights from NHL expert Pierre Lebrun point to the Bruins emerging as prime contenders for Lindholm. According to LeBrun's recent commentary on Insider Trading, there's a likelihood of a trade around March 8, with the Boston Bruins and Colorado Avalanche positioned as front-runners in the Lindholm sweepstakes.
