If there was a package to be made with those two involved, my money would be on the Bruins. They need Vermette for Krejci's absence and Yandle is a local Boston boy that would likely resign with them.

Shattenkirk is gone long term after having abdominal surgery earlier in the month, that's where I see Yandle fitting in for them.
Not sure what the timetable is for him, but if it's anything like backlund's surgery...
You always need depth, maybe they view Vermette as an upgrade at the 3rd line C position or as a top 6 winger who can take draws.
Time is starting to run out on the Blues and their core group. It's put up or shut up time for that organization.
