The Boston Bruins traded for forward Viktor Arvidsson from the Edmonton Oilers, giving up a 2027 fifth-round draft pick. Arvidsson waived his no-trade clause to facilitate the move. Entering the last season of his $8 million contract, he carries a $4 million salary cap hit. The Bruins will have approximately $8.7 million in cap space following the trade. Although Arvidsson had a less productive 2024-25 season, scoring 15 goals and 12 assists, he offers scoring depth that the Bruins need.
The Oilers are sending forward Viktor Arvidsson to the Bruins in exchange for a 2027 fifth-round draft pick, per Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
Arvidsson is entering the final season of a two-year, $8 million contract ($4 million salary cap hit).
He had a bit of a down 2024-25 season with the Oilers, scoring 15 goals with 12 assists in 67 games.
Arvidsson is a solid buy-low addition for the Bruins, providing much-needed scoring depth to Boston's lineup.
