Former Boston Bruins forward Ryan Donato is having a career season. The 28-year-old forward has already set new career highs with 19 goals and 37 points in 53 games with the Chicago Blackhawks. This includes posting four goals and eight points over his last four games. He also has 13 points over his previous 10 contests.

A breakdown of every Bruins' no-trade and no-movement clauses and the interest they might draw at the deadline.

After dropping their ninth loss in their last 10 road games, the Bruins are running out of time to right the ship.

The Boston Bruins have been buyers at nearly every trade deadline under general manager Don Sweeney, but this year, their approach remains uncertain. Boston, sitting sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 27-23-6 record and 60 points in 56 games, is one point behind the Detroit Red Wings for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot.

The NHL trade deadline is a month away and the Boston Bruins must decide whether to be buyers or sellers. Going into Wednesday’s game against the New York Rangers, the Bruins sit just outside of a Wild Card playoff spot behind the Tampa Bay Lightning and the the Detroit Red Wings.

Speaking on the TNT broadcast during the matchup at Madison Square Garden, Sweeney sounded like an executive hoping to avoid a reality where the Bruins plant a “For Sale” sign ahead of the trade deadline.

The Boston Bruins are right in the middle of a very competitive playoff race in the Eastern Conference. The B’s are tied with the Tampa Bay Lightning for the second wild card berth, but the Bolts have played four fewer games.

One player who has been discussed as a potential trade candidate is pending restricted free agent Morgan Geekie. However, it would be wise for the Bruins to hold onto the 2017 third-round pick instead.
