Will the Bruins need to clear out more salary? Teams interested in Linus Ullmark

Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now: At this point it seems like the Boston Bruins could stick with their tandem of Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman. Something can always change though.

Bruins GM Don Sweeney said that they don’t need to clear more salary out. Elliotte Friedman said the Bruins want to re-sign Tyler Bertuzzi and they still have to re-sign Jeremy Swayman.

Friedman on 32 Thoughts on Bertuzzi and if a goaltender could be moved.

“This is a huge challenge for them, obviously. was one thing they did to open up some room. I don’t think they’re done yet, and I just don’t know if you can really figure out what they’re going to do until they cull before they bring back. I still have trouble figuring out where it’s going to go, except I believe that Bertuzzi is going to be the No. 1 guy. I gotta think there’s a decent chance one of those two goalies is going somewhere.”
