Boston Bruins complete a four player roster transaction

October 2, 2025

The Boston Bruins have completed a four player roster transaction as the season approaches.

It was expected that the Boston Bruins were going to announce some roster cuts after their game vs the Capitals.

Instead, they surprised everyone by announcing them before the game, and four players have been sent back to the Providence Bruins.

Dalton Bancroft, John Farinacci, Dans Locmelis, and Billy Sweezey have all been assigned back to the Providence Bruins.

Austin Sabourin

Austin Sabourin grew up measuring winters by Bruins schedules and summers by draft. A rink kid from the first slapshot, he learned geography by road trips to the Garden and history by numbers in rafters. Ray Bourque posters curled above his desk; a scuffed puck rode in his backpack as talisman. The team's black and gold became a compass-pointing toward grit, loyalty, and the thrill of overtime breath-holds. That compass eventually pointed him online. Austin studied communications, then chased beat reporting, freelancing between practices and late-night recaps. In June 2023 he took the reins at BruinsInsider.com, where he edits tape breakdowns, tracks lines, and files stories before the Zamboni's lap. He prefers strong verbs to puff, stats to noise, and sources who text back after road losses. The site runs lean but quick-like a third-line forecheck that refuses to coast. Away from the press box, he still talks like a fan: superstitious hoodie, stubborn optimism, grudges softened by highlight reels. Weekend mornings start with coffee and cap math; evenings end with film study and a note to fix tomorrow's headline. He's chasing clarity over clicks, access over hype, and a simple promise: never miss what really matters to Bruins fans.
