Report: Bruins Have Offered Defenseman PTO.
The Boston Bruins and general manager Don�Sweeney are still trying to work out a couple of contracts.�
Charlie McAvoy and Brandon Carlo remain unsigned restricted free agents as Sweeney struggles with only $7.2million in salary cap space to get it done.�
Yesterday we heard that Kevan Miller could be traded to make some salary cap space, it's not much but it would free up an extra $2.5million in salary cap space.�
With so many question marks on the blueline with a month to go before the season, Sweeney has offered a defenseman a PTO.�
Sweeney put in an offer to Alex Petrovic who has spent the majority of his career with the Florida Panthers.�
Alex Thomas of Boston Hockey Now reports that Petrovic hasn't signed the PTO yet as he's also looking at two way contracts from the Carolina Hurricanes and Calgary Flames.�
The 27 year old Petrovic brings some grit as he's racked up 360 penalty minutes in 263 games.
Just like Miller, Petrovic has never played a full 82 game season.
