The Bruins, who are looking to make another playoff push with a now aging core in Bergeron and Marchand, could use the youthful injection of Chychrun and to stabilize a weaker than usual Bruins defence core. Considering Chychrun's contract, he could potentially be a long-term fixture on the Bruins' back end. But what kind of asset would the Bruins have to part with to acquire the star defence man?
Frank Seravalli suggested today on the Daily Faceoff Podcast that Jeremy Swayman could potentially be the starting piece in a Chychrun trade. The young goaltender would be a massive addition to the Coyotes crease for years to come, and the Bruins have Linus Ullmark signed for multiple years as well. A rare goaltender-defenceman trade could make sense here between the Coyotes and Bruins.
Do you think a Swayman - Bruins trade makes sense for both teams, does Boston need to add more, or do the Coyotes hang up the phone? Vote in the poll to let us know!
