One of their biggest goals of the off-season should be to improve their forward group, as they desperately need more offense. One specific need the Bruins [https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqBwgKMK-q0gsw7sXpAw/sections/CAQqEAgAKgcICjCvqtILMO7F6QMwluDfCA?hl=en-CA&gl=CA&ceid=CA%3Aen] have is another skilled winger in their top six. Because of this, one player whom they should consider making a serious push for if he hits the free-agent market is Winnipeg Jets star Nikolaj Ehlers. Ehlers, 29, is coming off another strong regular-season with the Jets. In 69 games on the campaign, the 2014 ninth-overall pick scored 24 goals and recorded 63 points. With this, he has now hit the 20-goal mark for the eighth time and 60-point mark for the fourth time in his 10-year career. Adding a player who produces offense so consistently, like Ehlers, would be significant for a Bruins team looking to be a playoff club again. When looking at a potential fit for him in Boston's lineup, the second line certainly stands out. In addition, he would be an obvious fit for their power play because of his playmaking ability. Given how well Ehlers has been throughout his career with the Jets, it feels likely that they will aim to get him re-signed. However, if they do not come to terms on a new deal by July 1, the Bruins would be wise to make a serious offer to the 6-foot winger.
