No but they have enough cap to make it one

I mean probably not as is but they have a ton of cap space

No really good FAs that off-season for them to capitalize on with the cap space, wonder if they take a step back for a year and restock the prospect cupboards

There’s a lot of variables with the bruins future. Like you said, the health of the aging core is one, tuukka potentially retiring is another one (the biggest one imo), Krejci could very well still be here. And like everyone’s said there’s plenty of cap space to fill in a couple gaps if everything line up wise stays as is. Think the bruins are in fine shape for the immediate future.

True but I doubt they implode over the course of one season
Lol this guy just hates the bruins they are contenders
He is missing Krug (who even at 7.5 Mil leaves 9.5 mil to sign a 2nd line RW)
With Krug, they have the same top 5 in the league defense that they have now (but better and more experienced)
with a 2nd line RW, they have a better top 6 than rn (with a sick 2nd line)
and a better bottom 6 than rn (because its the same guys, but more experienced and in their primes)
The only concern would be Tuukka and the backup (but thats not a huge concern because Swayman and Vladar are solid goalie prospects (dont wanna overrate them, but hobey baker and Vladars stats)
So basically take this team, add Krug, add a 2nd line RW and you still have 3 mil
