The Boston Bruins announced the addition of Kevyn Adams to their front office on June 26, 2026, marking 33 years since they drafted him in the first round of the 1993 NHL Draft. The Bruins did not specify Adams' role in the organization.

The Sabres would go on to finish on top of the Atlantic Division and make their first Stanley Cup playoffs appearance since 2011. Bruins GM Don Sweeney recently indicated he would seek external candidates to enhance the team's hockey operations department.
