This is a decent start in adding some depth scoring. It could be great start to rebulding this roster if Arvidsson can return to his Los Angeles Kings form. Arvidsson has shown that he can be an asset to this roster in the past, but has also shown signs of aging after an disappointing season in Edmonton.
The question now, is how do the Bruins move forward in filling in some of their last roster spots? They still need a third-line left winger and fourth-line right winger. The Bruins currently have 8.83 million dollars in cap space, according to @BruinsCapSpace on X/Twitter. They have a few options and their best option might be trading backup goaltender Joonas Korpisalo to free up more cap space.
