Blake Wheeler had a solid, though injury-plagued, 2023/24 season. At 37 years old, he's now being linked to another top Eastern Conference team.

The Boston Bruins put up a strong fight in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs but were ultimately eliminated in the second round by the eventual champion Florida Panthers. They've bolstered their roster this off-season by adding Nikita Zadorov and Elias Lindholm. However, their moves may not be finished as they are reportedly considering a free agent deal with veteran Blake Wheeler.
Despite battling injuries last season with the New York Rangers, Wheeler managed to record 9 goals and 21 points in 54 games during the 2023/24 season. While he may never return to his former level of play with the Winnipeg Jets, his addition could be beneficial. The Bruins' top-six is now solid with Lindholm's addition, but their bottom-six remains relatively untested. Wheeler's experience could provide a significant boost.
It's uncertain what Wheeler's market value is at this point, despite his solid performance last season. However, if Boston's interest is genuine, it could be an excellent fit for the veteran as the 2024/25 season approaches. Keep an eye on this situation.
