2 Bruins Trade Candidates Heading Into New Year

We are approaching the new year, which means trade chatter around the NHL will only intensify. The Boston Bruins are undoubtedly a team to watch in the rumor mill. They currently have a solid 20-14-4 record, but there is no question that they should be looking to make changes to their roster.

Due to this, let's discuss two specific Bruins who have the potential to be traded in 2025.

Trent Frederic

Trent Frederic has been the subject of trade rumors for a while now. It is understandable, as he is in the final season of his contract, and losing him for nothing in free agency would sting.

In addition, Frederic has not had a good year, posting five goals, six assists, and a minus-13 rating in 38 games. He also has zero points over his last nine games.

If there is a lot of interest in Frederic, and the Bruins can get a good return for him, it would not be too surprising to see him dealt. In addition, he could be a solid piece for the Bruins to add to a trade package to upgrade their forward group.

Fabian Lysell

If the Bruins want to acquire an impactful player that helps them immediately, Fabian Lysell may be a notable prospect who ends up going the other way.

Lysell, 21, could generate interest from sellers, as he is a former first-round pick with solid upside. He is having a decent season with the Providence Bruins, posting five goals and 17 points in 26 games. He also has seven points over his last six games with the AHL squad.
