Boston is slated to pick No. 7 overall, their highest draft choice since drafting Tyler Seguin (No. 2) in 2010. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll stay there.

Upon arrival , Boston Bruins brand-new head coach Marco Sturm made a key reminder about focal point of concern ahead of 2024-25 NHL season with David Pastrnak and the rest of the team.

The Bruins won’t see any additional coaching departures this offseason after appointing Marco Sturm as their new head coach last week, general manager Don Sweeney tells Jim McBride of the Boston Globe.

Despite Brad Marchand dominating in these playoffs, it's still a bit surreal to see him wearing a Florida Panthers jersey rather than the Boston Bruins threads

The Boston Bruins need a top-six center who can be a franchise player for a long time. And with the No. 7 overall pick in a 2025 NHL Draft class that’s loaded with quality centers, now is a good time to find that kind of building block.

Despite strong playoff play with the Florida Panthers, Brad Marchand’s chances of rejoining the Boston Bruins appear slim, according to a trusted update from ESPN’s Emily Kaplan.

We’re going to do as much as we can to give us the best chance to draft a player who we believe will continue to progress, get better, and adjust their game,” said Bruins director of amateur scouting Ryan Nadeau.

Martin confirmed to reporters that the Bruins were among the teams to take him out to dinner. The others were the Utah Mammoth, Nashville Predators and the Philadelphia Flyers — all who have higher picks in the draft than Boston. The Bruins go into the draft with a need for center depth. And Martin could certainly fill that void.
