It was just a thought, that type of guy. I’m sure there are others who fit the bill.Obtaining Hammer actually is a sound move. You could pair him with Charlie Mac as a solid defensive presense, and slide Chara down with Carlo. We more than likely wouldn't have to move much out at all besides Torey + lower pick and/or prospect. Almost perfect stopgap until some of the kids are ready.
I just think Boston need to be thinking outside the box a little bit.
You can’t keep asking a 40 year old to be your defensive anchor. Nor can you be sheltering two thirds of your pairings.
For those worrying about the power play I’d say McAvoy has earned the shot to see what he can do on that first unit. He’s a confident player, let him run with it.
