The Bruins announced Tuesday that they have extended qualifying offers to restricted free agents Sean Kuraly, Colby Cave, and Anton Blidh.
The most notable of the bunch, Sean Kuraly scored six goals and produced 14 points in 72 games. A bottom six forward, Kuraly is known for his strong forechecking ability and two-way style of play. He found chemistry centering the fourth line with Tim Schaller and Noel Acciari.
Colby Cave scored 33 points in 72 games for the Providence Bruins during the 2017-18 season. The 23-year-old center failed to register a point in three games in Boston.
Forward Anton Blidh potted 11 goals and totaled 26 points in 75 games with the Providence Bruins. He added two goals in the playoffs and did not register a point in his only NHL game in 2017-18.
The Bruins did not qualify one restricted free agent, Justin Hickman. Hickman will now become an unrestricted free agent.
