Bruins reportedly offer Torey Krug a six-year deal
The Boston Bruins remain in talks with pending unrestricted free agent Torey Krug, with their latest offer coming in at $6.5 million per year for the next six years,
according to TSN's Frank Seravalli.
That would add up to $39 million over the next six years, and a modest $1.25 million per year raise from Krug's current salary. But based on the current chatter, with the Bruins exploring the idea of trading Krug's negotiating rights according to both Seravalli and
Rear Admiral from Barstool Sports, Krug's camp is not interested in such a deal.
That $6.5 million per year cap hit may be close to the B's ceiling for Krug, too, with just under $14.5 million in available cap space this summer, and with the Bruins needing to come to terms with restricted free agents Jake DeBrusk and Matt Grzelcyk.
Getting Krug in at that price would leave the Bruins with under $8 million in available space, and while that may be enough to re-up their RFAs (and sign Zdeno Chara to another low-money deal), it would seriously restrict the B's ability to bolster their forward group, which once again feels like a need after another postseason run with extremely limited secondary scoring.

IMO opinion thats a solid offer. If not to his liking - see ya.
