Don Sweeney expresses Bruins' eagerness to engage in NHL trade activity

Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney stated on June 25, 2026, that the team is eager to make player moves as the NHL trade frenzy heats up ahead of the draft. After remaining relatively inactive this offseason, the Bruins have only acquired draft capital so far. Sweeney emphasized the team's appeal to players, citing factors like the fan base and city lifestyle as selling points. However, he acknowledged the limited attractiveness of Boston's first-round draft position, which could hinder efforts to land top talent. Sweeney believes increased transactions are likely in the coming weeks.
