And just like that, the Bruins have nothing left from the infamous Tyler Seguin trade.
The club has placed forward Jimmy Hayes on waivers for the purpose of a buyout, the team announced Friday.
Hayes wasn't directly a part of the trade, but he was dealt from Florida to Boston in exchange for Reilly Smith, who was one of the prospects who came back from Dallas in the megadeal.
Here's a full summary of the pieces Boston acquired from Dallas:
| Player | Departure |
|---|---|
| Loui Eriksson | Left as a free agent (VAN) |
| Joe Morrow | Not extended qualifying offer |
| Reilly Smith | Traded to FLA for Hayes |
| Matt Fraser | Claimed off waivers by EDM; now playing in Europe |
With the buyout, the Bruins will be on the hook for a cap hit of $566,667 over the next two campaigns, per Cap Friendly. Hayes was originally scheduled to make $2.3 million next season.
The towering 6-foot-6 winger recorded just five points in 58 games in 2016-17.
