Elias Lindholm has been a popular buyout candidate recently 😳 Lindholm, 31, profiles as two-way middle-six center, but is paid top dollar as a first-line center. His cap hit tied for the 25th highest cap hit among centers in 2025-26. The Swede has yet to reach the 50-point mark in each of his first two years in Boston despite having top-line minutes alongside David Pastrnak for majority of that time. NHL teams can only complete a buyout on a player’s contract from the start of the window until June 30th, when the timeframe closes at 5 p.m. ET. If the Bruins were to buy out his contract, it would have to be done over the next 10 years 👀 Would you do this to get his deal off the books? 🤔 #NHL #Hockey #Bruins #Boston #NHLBruins #Buyout #EliasLindholm
