Emily Kaplan also wrote in her article this morning that she's "hearing the Bruins are plotting something big" but didn't specify what that could mean. So truly anything could happen between now and the deadline tomorrow.

Pure speculation (clickbait?) I can't help but think of when Peter chiarelli said we got the two second round picks to use in another possible trade we have pending ... never happened.
It's the trade deadline, prices are high, and Things fall through. Yet, Often groundwork is laid for summer transactions.
I have trade deadline anxiety. The waiting is the hardest part. I'm expecting nothing but I'm hoping for something great. After all I'm a fan, a competitor, and I want something to happen that makes me feel good about my team.

Emily Kaplan is fantastic and doesn't put clickbait out there. She's a writer that everyone takes notice of when she talks/writes something

I expect Sweeney to add at least a defenseman. He loves defensive depth going into the playoffs. May not be anyone spectacular but it will be a warm body with experience.

What an awful group. They did have some interest in Mr K Shillington at one time.
