Major report sees Bruins Brad Marchand heading to Chicago to play with Blackhawks Bedard
Does Connor Bedard have a new line-mate? Boston Bruins are looking to dump their superstar veteran, and he is a perfect fit alongside Connor Bedard.
Rumor has it, Boston Bruins veteran forward, Brad Marchand, will be the next one out of the Bruins lineup.
Reports of Marchand being the next one gone from Boston emerged from their last game as their new boss behind the bench, Joe Sacco, took Marchand out of the lineup, fans quickly noticed on social media.
Are the Boston Bruins attempting to make captain Brad Marchand (healthy scratch in overtime) so unhappy he demands a trade? Bizarre move by Joe Sacco, or whoever decided this.
A reporter then called out Sacco for the controversial move, have a look:
Sacco on Marchand not playing overtime: "No, no, he wasn't hurt, nope, no." @globejimmcbride then asks if it was a coach's decision and Sacco confirms it was.
With these reports, the Bruins future looks even worse, with Marchand potentially out the door and Boston holding one of the NHL's worst prospect pools, it may be time to sound the alarm shortly.
Blackhawks can help Bruins' long-term plans, and fix current ongoing organization issues
The Blackhawks have plenty of assets, on the blueline and upfront, as shown in their recent trade: Blackhawks trade with Winnipeg Jets
The Blackhawks could sacrifice a future star by acquiring Connor Bedard some current stability, which is much needed.
If the Blackhawks were to acquire Marchand, a prospect such as Colton Dach, Frank Nazar or Ethan Del Mastro alongside a draft pick in return for the Bruins' captain.
Is it worth it? Long-term, certainly not, but Bedard is in urgent need of help, Tyler Bertuzzi and aging Nick Foligno are not suitable linemates to support a generational talent like Bedard, and sacrifice is needing to be made by Kyle Davidson before the 19-year old former first overall pick gets fed up.
