The Boston Bruins have made a trade with the Edmonton Oilers, sending forward Trent Frederic along with Providence forward Max Jones in exchange for defenseman Max Wanner and draft picks. Frederic, who is currently sidelined with an injury, was considered a valuable asset for the Oilers as they gear up for the playoffs. The Bruins, who are facing slim playoff chances, saw this trade as an opportunity to acquire draft picks and replenish their prospect pipeline. With Frederic set to become an unrestricted free agent, it made sense for the Bruins to move on from him and focus on building for the future. Wanner, a 21-year-old defenseman, has shown promise in the AHL and could be a valuable addition to the Bruins’ roster. This trade showcases the Bruins’ willingness to make strategic moves in the midst of a challenging season.
