The Boston Bruins have initiated a major roster change by trading defenseman Brandon Carlo to the Toronto Maple Leafs, following Brad Marchand's trade to the Panthers. This transaction marks the first agreement between the two teams since 2011, with an undisclosed return expected that may include Toronto's forward prospects and a draft pick. Carlo, drafted by the Bruins in 2015, has been a reliable defensive presence but faced challenges this season amid team deficiencies. The organization wishes him well in Toronto, acknowledging his contributions to the Bruins.
Well, change has finally come for the Boston Bruins, hot off the heels of Brad Marchand being traded to the Panthers.
Chris Johnston of SportsNet reported ... the Bruins will be moving on from defenseman Brandon Carlo, having traded him to the Maple Leafs for an undisclosed return.
Carlo was first drafted by the Bruins back in 2015 in the 2nd round, and acquitted himself wonderfully as the 2nd pairing stay at home guy for years.
While he never quite moved beyond that role, it's a role you definitely need on any successful team, and the Bruins' deficiencies were doing him no favors.
