Steven Stamkos is in the final year of his $68 million, 8-year contract, and there are NHL trade rumors speculating that this could be his final season with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Will Steven Stamkos sign with the Boston Bruins?
According to the Boston Globe’s Kevin Paul Dupont, the Boston Bruins will be an interested bidder for Steven Stamkos next summer.
He is a right-shot center who would fill the missing holes left by the departures of Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci.
If Stamkos is interested in a 3-4-year deal on his next contract, Boston should be all in.
What are NHL fans saying about a potential Steven Stamkos signing with the Boston Bruins?
Stamkos will re-sign with the Lightning and end his stellar career in Tampa.
If the Bruins still consider themselves Stanley Cup contenders, then yes, they should target Stamkos next summer if he is available.
He will be 34 next season. It is a pass for me. Time to focus on the kids and build around Pasta.
