Boston Bruins reportedly pursuing St. Louis Blues' forward
NHL teams are set to report to training camps over the next three weeks. With the beginning of training camp teams often complete last minute trades as they look to finalize their rosters before the season. The Boston Bruins have undergone a major transformation this summer after the retirement of David Krejci and Patrice Bergeron.
According to multiple sources, the Bruins have looked at a handful of creative ways to boost their offense. Now it seems like the Bruins have honed in on a target. Eklund from Hockey Buzz reports that the Bruins have a great amount of interest in Pavel Buchnevich from the St. Louis Blues.
Pavel is signed in STL for one more year, after the current one with the Blues, and they have been trying to extend him..however, where will he land on the scales? The Bruins are being very aggressive on this am told.
Buchnevich played in 63 games last season scoring 26 goals and 41 assists. Buchnevich would definitely help boost the Bruins offense. With the Blues rebuilding and the Bruins looking to remain competitive they could be perfect trade partners.
