There's a very good chance that this is the final season for both Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci. Add in the factor that David Pastrnak is a pending unrestricted free agent, I would say no.
Don Sweeney has to do whatever he can to make this team better and able to make a long Stanley Cup run. Even though they're already the league's best team.
According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, that just may be the case, as the Bruins are targeting a very sought after trade chip.
There's pretty much a 100 percent chance that Patrick Kane gets dealt this season and it will be to a contender. Boston could be a destination for Kane, who has all the say with a NMC, due to their outstanding start.
It really will come down to what other teams can offer that the Bruins can't. Sweeney has the draft picks to give up but does he have an attractive enough prospect outside of Fabian Lysell to trade?
