Lmao at that Chara take. Chara AND a solid prospect just to get anything? Yes, he's out and at the end of his career, but he's still a top 4 defenseman capable of playing 20-22 minutes a night. His cap hit drops to 4 million next season, which is extremely affordable for a contender. You don't think a team (contender) wouldn't want to solidify their D-core by adding Chara as their 2nd pairing guy? You think it would take a prospect as well to get something for Chara? If Chara was made available at the deadline, he would land a decent haul for Boston. Maybe worry about your own team since you have no clue about Chara.</i></div></div>


Hey man I like Chara as much as the next hockey fan but the guy has lost more than a step. Still solid by all means due to his smarts and positioning.
I just think he's becoming more beatable as the season goes on and he needs to carry the load for an undermanned defensive unit.

Chara is the best defender of the d core, but that's more due to Krug's size limitations, Kevan Miller and Quaders talent limitations, and Colin Miller and Carlo's inexperience. Not to mention Liles has sucked this year too.
