The latest trade rumors surround the Boston Bruins and their center Brad Marchand for the 2011-2012 NHL season. Marchand is 23 years old and is coming off his first full season in the NHL. He scored 41 points in 77 games. He stepped up his game in the playoffs to help the Bruins capture the Stanley Cup.

Agent Wade Arnott confirmed talks are ongoing and the two sides have yet to reach a deal. Arnott said that they are trying to get a new contract in place before training camp starts on September 16th, but suggested it was “no sure thing”. Restricted free agent, Marchand is looking to cash in on the Boston Bruins' recent success.
