Boston's Cam Neely Could Be Next On The Hot Seat At American Thanksgiving, the Boston Bruins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/] have an 11-10-3 record and are third in the Atlantic Division. Overall, while the Bruins currently hold a playoff spot, there is no question that they should be looking to upgrade their roster. This is especially the case when it comes to their forward group. When looking at trade candidates around the NHL, the Bruins have two former players who could be worth some consideration. Let's discuss both players now. TAYLOR HALL, CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS Taylor Hall is in the final season of his contract on a rebuilding Chicago Blackhawks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/chicago-blackhawks/] club, so he has been creating plenty of chatter as a trade candidate. Things escalated on that front when Hall was also scratched earlier this month.

However, given the 33-year-old winger's outstanding resume, he undoubtedly has the potential to bounce back. He is also showing signs of doing just that, as he had a hat trick in his last game against the Dallas Stars. If Hall continues to stay hot and regains his form, he could be a big-time addition to the Bruins' middle six. FRANK VATRANO, ANAHEIM DUCKS Frank Vatrano is another pending unrestricted free agent who could be on the move before the deadline passes. With the Anaheim Ducks [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/anaheim-ducks/] rebuilding, Vatrano could be a decent trade chip for them. The Bruins should consider reuniting with him if he is officially made available.

However, when playing at his best, Vatrano can be a very impactful scorer who also provides plenty of physicality. For example, just last season, he set career highs with 37 goals, 23 assists, 60 points, and 156 hits. Overall, with the Bruins needing a boost, Vatrano could be a solid player for the Bruins to take a shot on.
