There's been speculation that the New Jersey Devils are one of many teams who were in on a trade for Linus Ullmark.

It's unconfirmed if he nixed a trade to the New Jersey organization, or to the Ottawa Senators, but it's known he did refuse to be moved near the end of the NHL season.

But now that the Bruins are in off-season mode, Don Sweeney is going to be aggressive with moves in order to improve the Bruins roster.

We talked about it on this weeks pod with the rumors of NJ shopping the 10th overall pick, is Ullmarks value enough to get you that pick? What do you all think?

That could include finding the perfect trade partner to move Linus Ullmark to.

Tom Fitzgerald and the New Jersey Devils need to upgrade their goalie situation after a reset last season didn't work out as hoped, with Kaapo Kahkonen and Jake Allen in net.

Could there be a trade between the Bruins and Devils at the NHL draft?

There's talk that the New Jersey Devils are shopping the 10th overall pick which could be the potential cost for Linus Ullmark.

Ullmark would solve problems for the netminder situation in New Jersey, as a 2022-2023 Vezina Trophy winner and consistent performer.

While he clearing $5 Million in salary cap from the Bruin's books, would ultimately be a huge help for the Bruins and let them use the money to find additional talent on ice where it's needed.

I sure hope so. That would be such a nice surprise if we landed #10 along with clearly his $5M cap hit. Dream scenario.

Linus Ullmark has played 130 games in Boston, with an 88-26-10 record, a 2.28 GAA and a .924 save percentage in the 3 years since his arrival.
