The Boston Bruins are continuing to make moves leading up to the NHL trade deadline, as they just announced the signing of forward Tyler Pitlick.

Don Sweeney has been busy in the days leading up to the NHL trade deadline. On Tuesday the Bruins made their first big move when they sent both Trent Frederic, and Max Jones to the Edmonton Oilers.

In return the Boston Bruins got back a young defensive prospect in Max Wanner, along with a 2nd round-pick in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft and a 4th round-pick in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft.

The #NHLBruins have acquired defenseman Max Wanner, a 2025 second-round pick, and a 2026 fourth-round pick from Edmonton in exchange for Trent Frederic and Max Jones.

Don Sweeney Continues To Make Moves

Today Don Sweeney is continuing to make some moves as the Boston Bruins have announced they have signed forward Tyler Pitlick to a one-year, two-way contract that will span through the 2024-25 season, and it will carry a NHL cap hit of $775,000.

The 33-year-old has appeared in 43 games this year with the Providence Bruins and has 16 goals, along with 17 assists for 33 points.

#NHLBruins have signed forward Tyler Pitlick to a one-year, two-way contract through the 2024-25 season with an NHL cap hit of $775,000. Pitlick, 33, has appeared in 43 games with the Providence Bruins this season. He has also played in 420 career NHL games tallying 109 points.

The Boston Bruins confirmed this in their own statement:

BOSTON - Boston Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney announced today, March 6, that the team has signed forward Tyler Pitlick to a one-year, two-way contract through the 2024-25 season with an NHL cap hit of $775,000.

With all the trade speculation going on with the Boston Bruins, it's very possible this signing could lead to someone like Charlie Coyle, Pavel Zacha, Morgan Geekie, or Justin Brazeau being traded, as all of them have been involved in rumours leading up to the NHL trade deadline.

Pitlick is going to bring some veteran leadership to the Bruins lineup, but it's unclear whether or not this signing is indicating another move is set to take place, but Don Sweeney surely is going to be a busy man leading up to the NHL trade deadline.
