NHL trade deadline is less than two weeks away, and we still don’t know what path the Boston Bruins will take. The smartest path would be to sell and move a few veterans and/or upcoming free agents who might not fit into the team’s long-term plans.

The Boston Bruins made a costly gamble when they signed Elias Lindholm to a long contract this offseason; one that seems unlikely to pay off.

Hampus Lindholm is “unlikely to return this season,” and there is no timetable for Charlie McAvoy’s return to action, according to general manager Don Sweeney, who met with reporters following Bruins practice Sunday at Warrior Ice Arena.

The Bruins have been a mess in the 2024-25 campaign, making it clear as day that it's time to sell at the upcoming trade deadline.
