Don Sweeney accused of threatening Bruins players before trades

Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney has been accused of threatening players before the NHL trade deadline. He reportedly warned the team’s core that they needed to improve or face trades after firing head coach Jim Montgomery in November. Despite the warning, the Bruins struggled, finishing with a 3-6-2 record before the trade deadline. Sweeney then traded key players, including Brad Marchand and Charlie Coyle, in a significant roster shakeup. Marchand acknowledged the changes, stating that when a team underperforms, adjustments are inevitable. Bruins analyst Mike Grinnell criticized Sweeney's decision to trade Marchand, calling it a major mistake.
