Overview
- The Behind the B episode that aired Thursday showed a blurred whiteboard entry listing Filip Hronek in exchange for prospect Liam Pettersson and two first‑round picks.
- The putative deal did not happen and Vancouver general manager Ryan Johnson said he did not ask anyone to waive no‑trade or no‑movement protections, which suggests talks never advanced to formal waiver requests.
- The Bruins instead completed other moves, including acquiring right defenseman Will Borgen, while one other whiteboard item (a Korpisalo trade) later matched a real transaction.
- Analysts note the listed package implies a valuation of Hronek as a long‑term, team‑friendly defender worth a prospect plus two first‑rounds and say his full no‑movement clause through 2028 will have kept immediate trade options limited.
- The clip highlights how behind‑the‑scenes footage can reveal team thinking but also shows the limits of treating whiteboard snapshots as proof of completed offers or negotiations.
