There’s a little over 24 hours left until Monday’s NHL Trade Deadline. As we speak, General Managers, including Peter Chiarelli, are working the phones trying to make some last minute additions for a potential late season run. Other GMs are looking to sell assets and acquire prospects and draft picks to build for their future.

To start are outlook at this year’s trade deadline, I’ve included Bob Snow and Dan St. Pierre on the rumored Bruins that are on the trading block. Stay tuned as we’ll have a list of names that could fit the 2014-15 Bruins as well as full reaction on deadline day over the next 24-plus hours.

As always, you can follow us on Twitter @BruinsDaily and on Facebook for up to the minute news and notes from the 2015 NHL Trade Deadline.

Bob Snow

Dennis Seidenberg – Only a few Bruins fall into the category of ultimate contributor and team player since the Black and Gold paraded Lord Stanley the spring of 2011. “Seids” is among that group, and was rewarded with a four-year $16 million contract extension before last season — just before he tore up a knee and sat out the latter part of last season.

While he is still a force on the blue line, it appears his No. 2 status is a peg or so down since a major rehab. BUT, his intellect for the game, presence in the locker room and ability to hold his own in money games makes him a perfect fit for a veteran team looking for added “D” to make a deep run this spring such as Pittsburgh or Detroit, for example, and he would bring at least a second-round pick. Better still, his 4-million-dollar salary the next three years would free up cap dollars for the Bruins to make a run at re-signing Johnny Boychuk to a, say, five-year, 25-million-dollar deal this summer. At a million dollars more the next three years, a de facto Seidenberg-for-Boychuk deal does two things: It’s good use of cap dollars, it adds youth to the Boston blue line, it adds some much needed positive PR into next season.

Malcolm Subban: The Bruins took Subban at No. 24 overall in the first round of the 2012 Entry Draft – for one of two reasons: They expected him to eventually be their No. 1 pipe dweller if Tuuka Rask did not pan out. Or Subban would bring top trade value if Rask did pan out.

It’s judgment day. Subban is into the third year of his entry-level contract next year at an eighth of Rask’s salary who will have five years left on his mega-deal at 7+ million per annum. That’s a ton of cap space. And Subban’s next contract – wherever that might be – will be max no more than half of Rask’s, which will be absorbed as the cap increases each year.

If the Bruins commit to Rask, they need to deal Subban now; he will bring at least a No. 1 pick in June – if not more. If Subban has half his brother P.K.’s energy, dedication and innate ability, he will be the go-to guy within two or three seasons — somewhere.

Tuukka Rask: OK, has Rask panned out? Yes, he won the Vezina last year, and, yes, he is still (currently) among the elite goaltenders in the league. (So was Andrew Raycroft early in his career.) But the big question is: Has Rask’s game fallen off? He seems to lack some of his crisp focus this season for whatever reasons speculation might offer: New family responsibilities – he peaked last season – he needs a better core in front of him – he’s not Tim Thomas who carried the Bruins on his back.

Regardless, there are teams with mega cap space such as Buffalo who is rebuilding, and teams in desperate need of quality help in their 24-square feet such as the Sabres, Oilers, Columbus and Dallas. Buffalo also has stockpiled first-round draft picks. A Rask trade likely brings the Bruins two first-round picks, both eventually at inexpensive entry-level three-year deals. That frees up some $5 million a year the next three years to sign a goal scorer, while Subban plays 60 games a year – starting March 4.

Dan St.Pierre

Carl Soderberg: Heading into his third season as a Bruin, the 29-year-old Swede opened up the 2014-2015 campaign with a bang by tallying 17 points in the first 24 games of the season and 27 points in 38 games. Since the new year, the soon-to-be unrestricted free agent regressed quite substantially, producing only seven points and a minus-3 rating over his last 24 games.

Based on the current Bruins roster makeup, this offseason Peter Chiarelli (or Ray Shero?) will be responsible for five unrestricted free agents (Soderberg, Adam McQuaid, Daniel Paille, Gregory Campbell and Matt Bartkowski) along with seven restricted free agents (Dougie Hamilton, Reilly Smith, Torey Krug, Ryan Spooner, Niklas Svedberg, Craig Cunningham and Jordan Caron). Making matters worst, Milan Lucic, Loui Eriksson, Chris Kelly and Kevan Miller’s contracts will expire after next season with all four hitting the market as unrestricted free agents. Outside of Kelly, Campbell and Paille, all other players are in line for a pay raise when their contracts expire.

Even as a UFA in the offseason, Soderberg’s friendly cap hit of a little over a million this season makes him an attractive option to General Managers looking to add a final piece to their playoff puzzles. It’s not “blowing up the roster core,” it’s retooling the roster before it’s too late. Over the next 24 hours, Peter Chiarelli has the opportunity to land several high end draft picks that he could package in the offseason to finally bring in a goal scoring threat on the right wing or to acquire a top-four defenseman.

Adam McQuaid: What type of value can you place on a defenseman who’s only appeared in 105 out of the last 226 regular season games? Not much, I can promise you that. Nonetheless, the oft-injured defenseman has appeared in 43 games this season, producing a total of four points a minus-2 rating. With an abundance of back-pairing defenseman progressing in Providence, it’s time for Chiarelli and the Bruins to maximize cap efficiency by sending the sixth-year NHL defenseman to a perennial Cup contender for a late round draft pick. McQuaid should never suit up over Joe Morrow, David Warsovsky or Zach Trotman, let alone over Bartkowski, like he’s done consistently this season.

Chris Kelly: When Peter Chiarelli acquired Chris Kelly from the Ottawa Senators at the trade deadline in 2011, many pundits thought he would bring stability in the bottom two lines and also provide some extra leadership to the B’s locker room. Kelly has done just that since his tenure began a few months before the B’s captured Lord’s Stanley Cup, but it’s a little surprising that he’s lasted this long in a Black and Gold uniform.

With two years left on his contract and a $3 million cap hit, Kelly would be a decent option for a team needing to add depth. He can play both wing and center and is pretty good from the faceoff circle. I don’t see anyone acquiring about his services this year, but there could be a taker or two when we reconviene for the trade deadline in another 365 days (or more).

Torey Krug and Reilly Smith: Seeing how both signed bridge contracts before training camp and are RFA’s after the season, I lumped these two together in one post. Nonetheless, these two players would be intriguing trade chips if Chiarelli were to acquire a major piece in the next several hours. Krug’s puck moving skills would be instrumental for a team looking to bolster their power play for the stretch run, and Smith, while somewhat underachieving this year, is a very streaky scorer capable of scoring at least 20 goals a year.

The Bruins already have $55 million committed to 12 players next year. The expected salary cap will be between $71 and $73 million. That will leave $18 million on the table to sign Smith, Krug, Soderberg and Dougie Hamilton – to name a few. Someone has to be the odd man out, but that’s a decision Chiarelli or whoever is the team’s GM in the summer can make in the off-season.

Milan Lucic: There was a time where Milan Lucic’s name came up on the trade block. The polarizing power forward has a cap hit of $6 million and his contract expires at the end of the 2015-16 season. When he’s skating hard – like he did Saturday night against the Coyotes – Lucic is one of the best power forwards in the league. When he takes nights off, however, his play is not up to par.

Several weeks ago, I wrote on how there would be risks and benefits involved in trading Lucic. That discussion will have to come at another time as I don’t see Chiarelli dealing the Vancouver born forward, especially the way he’s been gelling with Ryan Spooner and David Pastrnak over the last few games.

On the other hand, if Lucic is really looking for $8 million per year in his contract as has been reported, Chiarelli and company might want to look into getting something in return sooner rather than later.
