Last weekend, all signs pointed to the Boston Bruins making a huge move. NHL insider Elliotte Friedman was dropping updates in terms of Calgary Flames defenseman Rasmus Andersson potentially landing in a trade with the Black and Gold.
It never ended up working out; Andersson was traded to the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday afternoon. After reportedly trying to work out a contract extension with Bruins general manager Don Sweeney, nothing was agreed on. In fact, he was traded to Vegas without an extension in place. The Golden Knights paid the price to acquire him, thinking they would be able to get an extension done before free agency opens on July 1.
