Report: Bruins working on multiple fronts ahead of deadline

They're apparently hunkering down in Boston.

The Bruins are expected to be major players before Monday's 3 p.m. ET trade deadline, and TSN's Darren's Dreger and Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman have the latest on what's reportedly happening in Boston:

Bruins are a major player today. Working on Hamhuis/Russell...considering Eriksson trade options. Lots of discussions in Boston.

Some talk around BOS F Seth Griffith. 60 pts in 46 games at AHL Providence. 23 years old.

The Bruins sit in third place in the Atlantic Division, and have to decide whether to sell Loui Eriksson, and/or add defensive help in Dan Hamhuis - who has a no-trade clause - and Kris Russell.

Eriksson's the top offensive player available on the trade market, if the Bruins decide to deal him, and he's looking for a long-term deal, as he's scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.

Hamhuis wants to leave Vancouver as a rental, try and win a Stanley Cup, and head back home to play for the Canucks. He's been open about his desire to not uproot his family.

Russell's unrestricted on July 1, as well.
