My point with this team is that Boston could have been younger and still good today, but could have had an absurd amount of cap space to make more beneficial moves.

I think they would be a fringe playoff team in my opinion. The defence isn't strong enough there and the goaltending is lacking alot of experience. You have only one good line for offence as well. I think they are better today than they would have been this way. Just my opinion anyways.

I’m just saying what this team could be at the bare minimum. I know they’re not as good but they would have a ton of cap space. There is no way I’d want the team to look like this but with some good signings it could be interesting.

Yeah I get it, at the time alot of those moves they made were really good though. The Hall trade was great considering what they gave up.
