The Boston Bruins are set to have a major roster shakeup and it was just revealed by a reporter.

It has been reported that Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney may be close to pulling the trigger on a massive trade.

Bruins insider Jimmy Murphy stated that an NHL executive revealed that the Bruins could be close to making a trade and to be "on the lookout. People are starting to leak."

This was also stated:

«It's no secret that he wants a scoring winger for the top-6, but don't be surprised if he snags another top-6 center. Are we talking about a legit No. 1 center? Probably not because those are hard to find on the trade market, but maybe a 1B like they already have in Lindholm.»

The Boston Bruins have not had a good start to the 2024-25 season so far, and have had many embarrassing efforts that have started these rumours.

The Bruins offence has been a main focal point of this as they have not be able to produce like they thought they were going to be able to after making some big additions in the off-season.

Jim Montgomery has repeatedly called out the Boston Bruins after multiple outings this year, stating they have not been good enough.

There is guaranteed going to be a roster shakeup, it's not a matter of if, but more of a matter of when.

Another big talk around the Bruins organization has been if Jim Montgomery is still the right coach for the job, or if they are going to make a move and fire him.

According to reports, General Manager Don Sweeney has been scouting aggressively, with the Bruins being linked to the Columbus Blue Jackets, and the Anaheim Ducks according to multiple sources.

Jimmy Murphy stated,

«Zegras is still playing in the NHL, but there seems to be a good chance that it won't be for the Ducks much longer. Could Sweeney try to bring the former Boston University star back to Boston?»

Something is needed with the Boston Bruins being a .500 team right now, and the offence struggling like it has been. The Bruins currently have a record of 8-8-2 and sit in a playoff spot as of now, but if they keep playing like they have been, that could slip really fast.
