Bruins president Cam Neely admitted that Boston has to prepare for "two paths" as buyers or sellers this season.

The Boston Bruins are barely hanging onto a playoff spot, and Cam Neely said they are still decided which path to take at the NHL trade deadline.

The Bruins entered the season with hopes of chasing the Stanley Cup. With over half the season gone, Boston brass is getting pragmatic.

Bruins CEO Charlie Jacobs offered up his support for both Cam Neely and Don Sweeney in the midst of a difficult season.

Is it time for major changes? CEO Charlie Jacobs made one thing clear Wednesday: He has faith in Sweeney and Neely to make the right moves.

Gourde has appeared in 35 games this season with the Kraken, where he has six goals, 16 points, and 58 hits. Overall, he provides decent secondary offensive production and grit, so he could be a solid addition for the Bruins if they find themselves in a better spot in the standings near the deadline.

Boston Bruins president Cam Neely acknowledged Wednesday evening that the organization will have to “look at two paths” – buy or retool – as the trade deadline approaches given the team’s inconsistent play this season.

Bruins CEO Charlie Jacobs expressed full confidence that team president Neely and general manager Don Sweeney will choose the right route.

“We’ll see where we’re at,” Bruins president Cam Neely said Wednesday of the team’s approach to the trade deadline. “I think right now, we’ve got to look at two paths: one that we’re buying and one that we may be retooling a little bit.

The Boston Bruins have emerged as a dark horse in the J.T. Miller trade sweepstakes, at least in the eyes of NHL insider Frank Seravalli.

Year in and year out, the Boston Bruins have been a regular participant in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This year, though, has been one like no other.  While they’re currently in a playoff position, making the postseason is by no means a guarantee for the B’s this season.

Despite being in a playoff spot, Boston Bruins president Cam Neely said the team may retool ahead of the NHL Trade Deadline.
