Bruins weigh options for Pavel Zacha before training camp

The Boston Bruins face a critical decision regarding forward Pavel Zacha as he enters the final year of his contract. After posting career highs with 30 goals and 35 assists last season, Zacha could become an unrestricted free agent next summer. General manager Don Sweeney has several options: extend Zacha's contract, trade him ahead of the season, or wait until the NHL trade deadline. Each option presents risks as Zacha's performance raises concerns about long-term sustainability and the Bruins' ability to integrate younger talent. A decision must be made before training camp begins, impacting both current competitiveness and future roster plans.
