Boston Bruins
Oilers Trading For Bruins Forward Trent Frederic in 3-Team Deal
The Edmonton Oilers are reportedly acquiring Trent Frederic from the Boston Bruins in a three-team trade with the Devils.
As per Elliotte Friedman, “Hearing Trent Frederic will be traded to Edmonton. Believe this is a three-way through New Jersey.” The Devils are getting involved in a salary cap level, but it’s not clear what the sweetener going to them is in the trade.
If the Bruins retain 50% on the deal and the Devils retain another 50%, that would make Frederic a $575K forward on a pro-rated deal. It’s not yet known if that’s the deal the Oilers are making. TSN’s Chris Johnston believes that’s what is happening in this transaction, at least from the Devils end of things.

More to come.
