## Resource

The Boston Bruins just handed Fraser Minten a seven-year, $7.2M average annual deal—set to start in 2027-28—that’s more than just a gamble; it’s a strategic investment in his potential. At just 22 and with only 107 NHL games under his belt, Minten’s upside is huge. His breakout season—17 goals, 35 points in 82 games—gave the Bruins confidence, and without a no-trade clause, they retain flexibility. With few high-end center prospects on the roster, this move locks in a key piece for their long-term rebuild. While some fans may balk at the cost, this contract could turn out to be a steal if Minten continues to develop.
