Boston's Cam Neely Could Be Next On The Hot Seat The Boston Bruins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/] will be a team to watch at the 2025 NHL trade deadline. Their trade deadline plan is unclear at this point, as they are currently fighting for a playoff spot in a tight Eastern Conference. With the Bruins being in a tough spot, clubs are keeping an eye on some of their pending unrestricted free agents. According to NHL insider David Pagnotta [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnTgWlSSDjM], teams have expressed interest in Bruins forwards Trent Frederic and Justin Brazeau [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/latest-news/report-bruins-extension-talks-with-forward-now-quiet]. "Trent Frederic has generated a ton of interest for a good portion of the season," Pagnotta said. "And Brazeau recently as well. They had contract talks with, I believe, both in December. It's been relatively mild since. So they're going to kind of see where they are at before they make a decision on selling either of those two players." Trent Frederic [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjEyNjI1MjE1NjMxNDAyNjI0/usatsi_25339381.jpg] Trent Frederic Frederic, 26, is in the final season of his contract and can become a free agent on July 1. The 2016 first-round pick has struggled this season, as he has eight goals, seven assists, and a minus-11 rating in 53 games. However, it makes sense that teams are interested in Frederic [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/latest-news/3-potential-landing-spots-for-bruins-trent-frederic] even though he is having a down year. His tenacity makes him a good player for the playoffs, and he has had past offensive success, as demonstrated by his 18 goals and 40 points last season. Brazeau, 27, is also a pending UFA on the Bruins. The 6-foot-6 winger notably has an easily affordable $775,000, so it is unsurprising that clubs reportedly have him on their radar. Justin Brazeau [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjExOTUwMzU3MDgzODU4NDY3/usatsi_25123780.jpg] Justin Brazeau Brazeau has 10 goals, 10 assists, 81 hits, and a minus-5 rating in 52 games this season. Overall, he has shown that he can provide secondary scoring and grit, so he could be a nice addition to a contender's bottom six if the Bruins elect to shop him. It will be interesting to see what the Bruins decide to do with these two at the deadline from here. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Google News [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjEyMTYzODI4NzY5NjI5NzMx/google-news.png] Google News Stay updated with the most interesting Bruins stories, analysis, breaking news and more!
