Nurse Eyes Bruins Despite Fit Questions

Darnell Nurse, Edmonton’s high-salary defenseman, is primed for a trade this summer, eyeing a fresh start — with Boston Bruins quietly in the mix. Despite his solid play when healthy, Boston’s needs lean toward a right-shot top-four defenseman and a first-line center, making Nurse’s left-shot profile and $9.25M cap hit a tough fit. His eight-year, $74M contract adds financial pressure, and his minus-12 rating last season hints at inconsistency. With a no-movement clause, Nurse holds leverage — but Boston’s priorities may make this a long shot. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
