The Boston Bruins, looking to add depth on the back line as they battle for playoff positioning in the NHL Eastern Conference, have landed one of the most notable defenseman on the trade market, Anaheim 28-year-old veteran Hampus Lindholm.
Lindholm, 28, was set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. He was Anaheim's sixth overall pick in 2012 and has patrolled their blue line since, while collecting 222 points in 582 games. Verbeek had spoken with Lindholm on the possibility of an extension, but as Anaheim continues to rebuild, the sides couldn't reach agreeable terms. Boston is expected to try signing Lindholm to a long-term contract as well.
Curran, 32, is a career minor-leaguer who has never played in the NHL. He signed with Anaheim as a free agent in 2020.
