Could the Bruins — now winners of six games in a row and eight of their last nine games — be buyers before March’s NHL trade deadline?
According to several reports on Saturday, the Bruins are firmly in the mix for Calgary Flames defenseman Rasmus Andersson — who is expected to be on the move in the coming weeks.
Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman noted on Saturday’s Hockey Night in Canada broadcast that there are several teams interested in plucking the minutes-eating blueliner out of Calgary.
However, he added that the Bruins might be the leaders in the clubhouse, as Boston has already started potential contract talks with Andersson if a deal is struck.
