## Resource

The Bruins stunned the league last season with 100 points and a playoff run after a midseason roster overhaul, thanks to a new coach and breakout stars like Minten and Khusnutdinov—but their playoff exit exposed a glaring need: a true top center. With Don Sweeney leading the charge this summer, Boston’s focus is on speed and skill, especially at center, where free agency is thin and a trade is likely. Targets like Pettersson and Thomas come with steep costs, but the Bruins have assets—draft picks, prospects, and cap space—to negotiate. Internally, young talents Minten and Hagens show promise, with Minten already clicking with Pastrnak. But with Pastrnak nearing 30 and hungry for more, the Bruins can’t afford to wait. They must upgrade smartly, avoiding overpaying or risking their rebuild with a desperate blockbuster. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
