The Boston Bruins have made some interesting decisions over the past week. They extended trade deadline acquisition left wing Taylor Hall, left defenseman Jeremy Lauzon exposed in the expansion draft to be taken by the Seattle Kraken, and drafted Swedish right wing Fabian Lysell in the first round of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft.

Yesterday, we also learned that B’s general manager Don Sweeney had changed his mind on restricted free agent (RFA) wingers Nick Ritchie and Ondrej Kase as he decided to not tender their qualifying offers and let them become unrestricted free agents (UFA).
