Bruins give general manager Don Sweeney 2-year extension

The Boston Bruins face an offseason of change, but one thing will remain the same. The team announced that general manager Don Sweeney has received a two-year contract extension.

"Don has navigated a disappointing period for our club with conviction, purpose, and a clear vision toward the future of the Boston Bruins," Bruins president Cam Neely said in a statement. "He made difficult decisions around the trade deadline with the confidence they will pay dividends as we craft a path back to contention."

Those decisions included trading away Brad Marchand, Charlie Coyle and Brandon Carlo.
