With less than a week before the 2025-26 NHL season begins, more and more players are being placed on waivers. On Wednesday, the Boston Bruins placed defenseman Billy Sweezey on waivers, and he cleared on Thursday.

He won't be the last Bruins player placed on waivers in the coming days with cuts looming after Boston's sixth and final preseason game on Saturday, when they host the New York Rangers at the TD Garden.
