There are rumblings about an all Atlantic trade that would see the Bruins get a replacement center for their team.

Bruins and Senators to Make a Blockbuster Trade?

The Bruins have had a rough summer after being eliminated in round 1 to Florida they ended up losing both Patrice Bergeron and David Krecji to retirement leaving them stranded for their top 2 center options.

The Senators are up against the cap and have one player still in restricted free agency that would be a perfect fit for the Bruins. That player being Shane Pinto.

The 22-year-old center is currently an RFA and the Senators might be willing to trade him as long as they think Ridly Greig will be a better player than Pinto.

However it seems the Bruins will have to pay a pretty penny to acquire the young center.

«Ottawa wants to make the playoffs, but they're up against the cap, so we're talking high-end prospects that could crack the roster this season,» the source told BHN. «That's probably Fabian Lysell and Johnny Beecher.»

Pinto a Suitable Replacement?

The young center man played his first full season in the NHL this past season, collecting 20 goals and 35 points in 82 last season.

A pretty impressive rookie showing for Pinto, but could he make the jump into the top 6 of the top 6 of the Bruins?

Pinto looked really good as the 3rd center man for the Sens last season and with a hard working summer Pinto could very well be the next top center for the Boston Bruins.
