With two restricted free agents, the Bruins have had to look at arbitration as a solution.
The Bruins are currently waiting for the arbitrators ruling on Jeremy Swayman's hearing. Instead of risking another arbitration case, the Bruins reached a deal this morning with forward. Trent Frederic.

The deal locks Frederic into a contract for 2 years and helps the Bruins depth at center. Frederic had a career year last season scoring 31 points, 17 of those goals.
