Don Sweeney and the Bruins have the means to significantly retool their roster this summer.
Thanks to a bump in the NHL’s cap ceiling and several expiring contracts on Boston’s depth chart, the Bruins are set to enter the offseason with nearly $21 million in cap space.
If they find a way to deal Linus Ullmark, that spending power could bump up to nearly $26 million.
Even after settling in-house business like carving out a hefty new contract for Jeremy Swayman and potentially retaining Jake DeBrusk, the Bruins will have enough left in their bank to add at least one impact forward — if not more assets.
