The Toronto Maple Leafs traded Fraser Minten to the Boston Bruins at the trade deadline and after 10 games in the AHL, a new opportunity has been presented.
Fraser Minten is a young forward who was a fan-favorite among Toronto Maple Leafs supporters. He worked hard and was shaping up to be a future star.
Fraser Minten called up to the Boston Bruins
Since being traded to the Boston Bruins, the forward has mostly played with the Providence Bruins, notching seven points in 10 games.
Minten has yet to play a game with the Boston Bruins, however, it seems as though this is about to change as the forward was called up today in a move that signals the team is thinking about the future.
After parting ways with franchise cornerstones at the trade deadline, the Bruins are about to embark on a rebuild and giving guys like Minten a chance will be instrumental in building a future contender.
Fraser Minten played a total of 19 games with the Toronto Maple Leafs and had two goals and two assists during that time.
Now, the forward will get a chance to prove his worth and perhaps even get considerations on the second line if he impresses enough.
Unfortunately, Maple Leafs fans may find themselves heartbroken by this latest development especially since the forward is so beloved by the fans.
However, that is the cost of doing business in the NHL and no one should be surprised that he had to be let go for a defenseman like
Brandon Carlo.
