The Boston Bruins were heavily linked to the Edmonton Oilers and forward�Ryan�Nugent-Hopkins over the last couple of days.�
However that rumour seems to have been debunked as it had Torey Krug going the other way, but it's been revealed that�Edmonton is actually one of the teams on Krug's no trade clause.�
Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet has linked the Bruins to a different forward in his latest "31 Thoughts" column.�
Friedman points to Los Angeles Kings veteran forward Jeff�Carter.�
The 33 year old forward lacks trade protection and seems to be available with the Kings struggling and possibly looking to rebuild.�
Carter has a $5.2million cap hit through the 2021-22 season, and while he's up there in age and struggling this season he's been an almost point per game player over the last couple of years.�
After missing significant time to injury last season, Carter put up 22 points in 27 games which included 13 goals.�
