Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald: Bruins GM Don Sweeney isn’t saying which free agents he’d like to bring back and which won’t be returning to the Bruins next season.
“We can afford the salary the guys are at, but some of them had very good years and you’d expect that to change. I’ve had discussions periodically with some of those players and will have with their representatives going forward, but I don’t have clarity on any of the players that are in the UFA status. We’re going to seek clarity, and we’ve got some players that we think internally that can continue to push and carve out roles, and we’ll see how we piece the jigsaw puzzle together.
