RUMOR: Bruins Eyeing Top Oilers Forward

The Boston Bruins, off to an impressive start this season, are rumored to be actively seeking to bolster their roster. They are reportedly turning their attention to the Edmonton Oilers for this purpose.

Bruins Looking to Edmonton to Replace Patrice Bergeron?

Boasting an outstanding 14-3-3 record early in the season, the Bruins have exceeded expectations, particularly in light of losing key players Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci.


Their departures have created a noticeable void in the team's lineup. Even if they're doing well, they could benefit from getting another top centerman.

Reports indicate that the Bruins are eyeing the Oilers, particularly Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, to fill this gap. Nugent-Hopkins, who has already been linked to the Bruins, seems to be an ideal fit.

Oilers to Make Blockbuster Trade After Tough Start?

The Oilers, facing their own set of challenges this season, might consider trading Nugent-Hopkins. Despite his impressive performance, with 18 points in 20 games and a remarkable 104-point season last year, the Oilers need to do something about their blue line and the goalies.

The Bruins, who already have top-tier goaltenders Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman, could leverage these assets to negotiate for Nugent-Hopkins.

Do you think the Bruins and the Oilers will make a trade?
