Okay, replace him with any other center in the NHL, and the Bruins still suck. They have next to zero offensive talent and not a single top talent defenseman. Chara is a pylon. Clode is using an obsolete system. This team is going nowhere.
Bruins offense is lighting things up. Chara is playing 25 mins a night and is a plus player. Claudes system took us to the finals 3 seasons ago and 1 game away from the final 4 two seasons ago.
If you fans say the team sucks... the players suck... the management sucks... everything sucks... and yet we are still one of the 3 most successful franchises in hockey in recent memory, then you are missing the names of who really sucks the most.
I cant say this start to this season or the finish to last season make me happy but at least try to find some positives.
If we all insist on being losers and focusing exclusively on crap... try to stick to real crap i think or we expose ourselves as being even poorer fans
