A Summer of Change in Boston
The Boston Bruins entered the offseason with a clear intent to deepen their forward ranks, signing three depth players who could bring varied energy to the lineup.
Alex Steeves arrived with a modest NHL résumé but quickly proved his versatility, contributing nine goals in 43 appearances and delivering a physical presence that earned him a two‑year contract extension.
Mikey Eyssimont, known for a pest‑like approach, logged 56 games but never locked down a permanent spot on the third line, reflecting the competition for minutes.
Lukas Reichel, acquired at the trade deadline, made an immediate impact with a goal and an assist in his debut, and his promising speed secured a one‑year extension as the club views him as a valuable bottom‑six forward.
Together, the trio offers a blend of scoring, grit and speed, giving the Bruins flexibility as they aim to contend in the upcoming season.
