Trade rumors have been buzzing around the Boston Bruins, particularly regarding defenseman Matt Grzelcyk. These speculations have lingered since last season, fueled by factors such as his cap hit, contract status, and the Bruins' financial constraints.

Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now has shed light on the situation, pointing to the impressive training camps of some Bruins' prospects, with Mason Lohrei catching attention.

The Chicago Blackhawks emerge as a potential suitor in this trade scenario, mainly due to their cap space and the shortage of NHL-ready defensemen in their lineup. Murphy highlights Grzelcyk's appeal, stating that

"Grzelcyk is better than any left-shot D they have now, and they have cap space. He could be great on their power play."

While the Bruins might not be expected to replicate their 2022-23 performance, it's worth recalling that last season they defied odds, overcoming significant injuries to key players. The timing of a trade involving Grzelcyk remains uncertain, with possibilities ranging from before the NHL season starts to midway through if the promising prospects from preseason continue to shine in the AHL. Only time will tell how this unfolds.
