Bruins Trade for Ottawa’s Chris Kelly, Raise Even More Questions
The Bruins announced late Tuesday night that they have acquired Chris Kelly from the Ottawa Senators in exchange for a second-round draft pick. While this move seems minor on the surface, especially in comparison to some of the other rumors that have been floating around in previous weeks, it could end up having major implications in how the Bruins approach the rest of their negotiations leading up to the trade deadline.
