Bruins qualify four out of seven restricted free agents ahead of market opening

The Boston Bruins issued qualifying offers to four restricted free agents, including Luke Cavallin, Riley Duran, Ivan Ivan, and Matt Poitras, on June 29. Jordan Harris, Alexis Gendron, and Max Wanner did not receive offers and will become unrestricted free agents on July 1. The Bruins had traded for Gendron in March, while Wanner was part of a deal involving Trent Frederic. Cavallin, who played in both Providence and Maine, was the only goalie to receive an offer. Poitras made significant contributions in the AHL and was eventually called up to the NHL. The situation sets the stage for free agency as contracts shift.
