Trade Talks Emerging Around Power Forward Anthony Duclair

Trade talks are emerging around power forward Anthony Duclair which could see him sent to this interesting team.

The Boston Bruins are, like many teams near the top fo the standings, gearing up for the trade deadline to see who they can add to their roster making them more competitive. There is no question that Bruins' coach Jim Montgomery likes Brad Marchand, David Pastrnak, and Pavel Zacha, his best three players, to run on the same top line.

This leaves the Bruins looking for a potential second liner, and that may just be Duclair of the San Jose Sharks.

The Athletic's Fluto Shinzawa says Elias Lindholm of the Calgary Flames would make a lot of sense, however, he also notes with the competition for Lindholm's services, they may be better to go after Duclair.

Duclair isn't the top goal scorer that the Bruins may be hoping for, however, he has been able to put up 13 points on a struggling San Jose team. He also adds the physicality and toughness that the Bruins like to play like.

Duclair had 31 goals in 74 games for the Florida Panthers in the 2021-22 season. Last year, he struggled with injuries which resulted in just 20 games played. He is off to a good start this season with 7 goals, considering the team he is on.

Clearly, the Bruins are looking to add something to their roster in the coming weeks before the trade deadline to make them even more competitive. We will have to see what they decide to do.
