Well the Bruins have some good D prospects, but will take a while to become 1/2 d-men, like McAvoy and Zboril. Chara i think is middle-pairing at best.
Most top pairing defenseman are drafted and developed; what the Bruins are doing. Very rarely are they acquired via trade/free agency. Chara has one more year left and then will either retire or re-up for another year. He is a middle pairing defenseman, you're right....But he's still playing at a high level, which allows Boston to continue to develop.

Sure, i get told the Bruins defence isn't that bad, but when i get told that, it's by someone who just disagrees with me.
No ****. I don't value your Bruins opinions very much. I've seen how you value certain players so that tells me you don't really have a lot of knowledge on the Bruins

I also get told that the Bruins need to fix their defence.
Bruins could use an upgrade at defense, but I don't think it's worth giving up huge packages to get....Especially when there will be some pretty good UFA's coming up (potentially). I'm all for upgrading the defense, but not in the fashion you seem to go every time. Bruins won't be acquiring Hedman, Karlsson, Ekholm, etc. etc. like you keep having them. It's just ignorant on your part to comment on a team you know very little to nothing about.

And i think they keep Pastrnak, and likely McAvoy too, but i think maybe put together a package of Zboril, DeBrusk, Acciari, and a 1st round pick, that might get you that number defenseman. And then the number 2 guy could be acquired with something like Forsbacka-karlsson, Senyshyn, and a 2nd or 3rd round pick. Or maybe they do Krejci and a few picks. Either way, they still keep McAvoy and Pastrnak.
So......The Bruins have one of the deepest pools in the league, and one of the deepest pools they've had in a long time, and you want to absolute annihilate it? These are exactly the comments that make me take very little away from your posts on the Bruins.
Stop suggesting this crap. My god, go worry about the Isles and Rangers. You don't want to listen to fans who tell you what's really going on.
