On March 7, 2025, the NHL trade deadline presents an opportunity for teams to either enhance their rosters for a playoff push or prepare for future seasons. The Boston Bruins find themselves in the latter category for the first time in years, contemplating player trades. Key considerations include the timing of announcements post-deadline and the necessity for teams to confirm the authenticity of sources on social media. Due to NHL/AHL roster restrictions impacting playoff eligibility, paper transaction moves are expected from several teams, including potential shifts involving Bruins players.
For the first time in quite a while, the Bruins fall into the latter bucket of preparing for the future as the trade deadline approaches.
Players who are on an NHL roster after today's trade deadline can't play in the AHL playoffs, leading to potential paper transactions.
Expect deals to trickle in after the 3 PM deadline, and verify the authenticity of information shared on social media.
GM Don Sweeney is expected to address the media around 4-5 PM on Friday, indicating the Bruins' approach to the deadline.
