Boston is close to finalizing a trade for forward JJ Peterka from the Utah Mammoth. The deal is aimed at the 2026 NHL Draft. Sources from TSN, ProHockeyRumors.com, Bleacher Report and The New York Times say talks are moving forward. Earlier reports linked the two clubs.
Boston has not disclosed its return assets. Negotiations are in the last phase. The Bruins could announce the move before the draft begins. The league will see if the transaction clears before the draft day. Both teams expect the trade to boost their lineups.
