The Buffalo Sabres traded forwards Taylor Hall and Curtis Lazar to the Boston Bruins in exchange for Anders Bjork and a second-round draft pick. Buffalo also retained 50 per cent of Hall's salary.

Multiple outlets reported the news early Monday morning. CBC Sports have yet to independently confirm the news.
