After talks of a potential move to the Ottawa Senators, Boston Bruins goaltender Linus Ullmark officially waived his no-trade clause.
Boston has been lucky to have two superstar goaltenders Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman. Yet, with the team looking to build up more skater depth, the older of the two may be on their way out. Fans have already started saying goodbye to the veteran Bruin on social media.
"The inevitable Ullmark trade is yet another reminder of the much less fun side of sports. Business is business and salary caps are a reality, but it sucks that the goalie tandem can't stay together moving forward. Wherever his next stop is, wishing @Icebeardude the very best."
Linus Ullmakr has been targeted by several NHL teams since his name was dropped as a trade target. Among the most prominent of these was the Ottawa Senators, who he said he may waive his no-trade clause for.
"The Senators are likely to acquire a starting goaltender this summer. They reportedly made an offer to Boston for Linus Ullmark, and are expected to circle back in the near future. #GoSensGo
Is Ullmark the right choice? Jacob Markström and Juuse Saros have also been linked."

Now, after a near-loss earlier this year, Bruins fans can likely expect these latest goodbyes to Ullmark to be final. The goaltender has officially waived his no-trade clause for the Ottawa Senators.
"Dom (@dominictiano) reports that Ullmark has officially waived his NTC for the Senators.
He also specifies that no trade or extension has been reached yet."

Though no official trade has been announced, waiving his clause for the Ottawa Senators sends a pretty clear message. Hopefully whoever Boston gets is a fair trade, otherwise, they could be out of another chance at next year's Stanley Cup.
