Overview
- The Bruins announced on Tuesday that former Buffalo Sabres GM Kevyn Adams joins Boston as senior advisor while Dennis Bonvie and Jeremy Rogalski were promoted to assistant general managers.
- Boston created a new director of hockey operations/CBA role and named Alex Gimenez to it with responsibility for contract talks, salary‑cap management, CBA compliance and player‑acquisition strategy.
- Don Sweeney confirmed that assistant GM and Providence Bruins GM Evan Gold will leave the organization effective August 1 to pursue other NHL opportunities, a change that leaves immediate AHL GM and coaching gaps.
- Adams arrives after being dismissed by Buffalo in mid‑December 2025, a tenure that helped assemble the Sabres roster that later won the Atlantic Division and beat Boston in the 2026 playoffs.
- The package of outside hire and internal promotions formalizes the Bruins’ push to modernize operations and raises near‑term questions about Providence staffing, analytics integration, and how Boston will manage its limited cap space.
