The Boston Bruins could very well win the Stanley Cup this season. They are off to a historic start and it's going to take something special from their opponents to knock the B's off in a seven-game series. While most of everyone's focus is on this season, let's jump ahead to the upcoming offseason and showcase three Bruins players who aren't expected back next season:Chris WagnerA rather easy target, Chris Wagner won't be back in Boston in 2023-24. The veteran forward is a pending unrestricted free agent and has been taken out of the Bruins' plans this season. He's managed to appear in only one game so far in 2022-23 and has spent most of the season in Providence playing in the AHL. Wagner's fifth season in Boston's organization will likely be his last.Nick FolignoWith the Bruins only having roughly $10 million in cap space to work with next season, don't expect to see the team re-sign 35-year-old forward Nick Foligno. He's injured at the moment and will be in tough to get back before the end of the regular season. He's having a decent season with 26 points in 60 games, and should he get healthy, could likely find some time on the team's third or fourth line for the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
