Boston Bruins rumors: 3 potential trade deadline targets
By Sam Minton
Jason Zucker
The Boston Bruins have had some recent success with making trades with the Minnesota Wild. Maybe they should try and make some magic with the team again.
Charlie Coyle has made Boston his home. With his success last year he earned himself an extension.
The Wild still have some talented players, one of them being Jason Zucker. He is another winger who could help out Boston.
Zucker is a consistent player. He isn’t flashy or an insane goal scorer but he is definitely capable of being a success on the 2nd line.
So far this season Zucker has 12 goals and 12 assists. This shows that he is not just a goal scorer but he can dish the puck as well.
If the Bruins were able to acquire Zucker they would have him for a long time. He still has 4 years left on his contract. That probably means an increase in price.
If I had to guess Boston wouldn’t need an NHL ready player, but draft picks and prospects would definitely be in play.
