Can the Bruins realistically re-sign any of their trade-deadline rentals?

The 2023-24 Bruins are going to look very different from the roster that rewrote the record books over the last several months.

Even though Boston has key cogs like David Pastrnak, Charlie McAvoy, Hampus Lindholm, Jake DeBrusk and many others all signed through next season, the Bruins have another eight players to set to enter free agency this summer.

The list is extensive, and chock full of talent: Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Tyler Bertuzzi, Dmitry Orlov, Garnet Hathaway, Nick Foligno, Connor Clifton, and Tomas Nosek.

Shedding that many contracts in one offseason usually opens the door for fiscal flexibility and on-the-fly retooling.
