The Bruins and Canucks are frequently linked in trade rumors, but Don Sweeney has to be careful with Vancouver's teardown.
The rivalry from the 2011 Stanley Cup Final is long gone, and the Boston Bruins and Vancouver Canucks now connect in other ways, mainly by the players they roster. The Bruins own some valuable former Canucks in Elias Lindholm and Nikita Zadorov, while the Canucks roster includes Jake DeBrusk and Derek Forbort.
The Bruins and Canucks also swapped players last season when Boston grabbed Michael Dipietro and Jonathan Myrenberg for Jack Studnicka.
