Don Sweeney pushed back on Wednesday when asked if the Bruins are honing in on one particular position with the seventh pick in the 2025 NHL Draft.
“We’re taking the best player,” Sweeney said at Warrior Ice Arena before later adding: “I think I’m going back to saying that we’re looking for the most impactful players. Now, impact can come in competitiveness and come in hockey sense and come in skill.
“It can come in scoring. When you can combine them all, obviously you get the perfect storm. It’s not a positional decision for us.”
After years spent dealing away first-round picks for win-now results, the Bruins’ prospect pool is in desperate need of an influx of blue-chip talent.
