The Boston Bruins knew they were going to have to do something about their goaltending, as they weren't gonna be able to afford paying both goalies around $13 million.
Following the playoffs rumours of Linus Ullmark being traded started to pick up, and not long after a trade was completed.
The Bruins traded Linus Ullmark to the Ottawa Senators for the 25th overall pick, Mark Kastelic, and Joonas Korpisalo.
With training camp beginning, the first look of Ullmark with the Senators was revealed and it hurts.
Look away Bruins fans.
Many fans thought that the Bruins should have waited until Swayman was signed before trading Linus Ullmark, but recently it was revealed that the Bruins rushed to trade Ullmark because if they waited past July 1st, Ullmark could have changed his no-trade clause.
The Bruins are now having troubles getting Jeremy Swayman signed, and it seems like they may even start the season off with a goalie tandem of Brandon Bussi and Joonas Korpisalo.
