I only shared one stat. You didn't share any.
I didn't need to, do you watch the games?

I'm sure years ago JJ was one of the owners who did not want a cap floor.I'm starting to think salary/cash flow is the major concern for the Bruins, than cap hits and cap room are.
The Bruins only have 67m in salaries this season and they seem risk averse in adding more.
The scary thing is that they already have 50m in salary committed for 2021-2022 and only 11/23 roster spots on the books.
Yes and I have to say I watched a pretty dominant Chara and McAvoy pairing....
Similar to Lindros.I’m honestly just hoping Kase plays more than 40 games and produces. I just always hold my breath when the dude has the puck, his head is down like 90% of the time. He’s one green light hit away from a statistic.
The power play won them games n the regular season and when the games weren't called as tight and they didn't get as many power plays in the playoffs they were done because they are not built to score ugly goals by crashing the net and getting rebounds.I find people are super one sided when talking about Krug. “He’s bad defensively” - I mean, sure, he’s not great defensively... but then when you bring up the offense it’s “wELl tHeY wErE mOsTly PP pOInTS!”
I think people completely undervalue the fact that he’s an elite power play guy, and makes it that much more lethal.
McAvoy is the next best d-man offensively, and then there’s an absolute cliff to the next.

We won a lot of games because of of special teams last year. We lost our PP QB and we might loose our best penalty killing D man.
Insurance companies are ruthless by nature I’m guessing team - you think fans are skepticalQuestion. Do you know if the team is paying the money or is it the insurance company? Thanks
With Charlie carrying Chara's ass you mean?
Now go watch other teams play, objectively , you'll see many better Dmen than Chara.
Watching him in the post season as a legitimate nightmare.Is that why Chara was leading the way in total ice time for the bruins? and top 5 minutes in the league?
Must be because he's completely unreliable....
Agree on GrzelcykI think that's a good point. I'm a little less concerned about Krug because I think Gryz is really underrated, but losing Chara on the PK could be huge, especially when you look at the guys replacing him.

True, you’re right. But on the back end he was legitimately god awful.He wasn't the only nightmare....
Thank You Eric!No,that kid is long gone
Voyer had great stats but most everyone in that league does.
However, I think he should have been drafted, they signed a Dman too around the same time who I'm even more perplexed why he was passed over twice
Brady Lyle
I guess we'll see how they pan out
That’s true for any player in the league. What’s not true for most is that they’re in the top 5 of any.
But if you want some more top 5 in the NHL Chara stats from last year you could look up defensive zone start % or PK minutes.
I think that's a good point. I'm a little less concerned about the PP and Krug's loss because I think Gryz is really underrated and McAvoy is a high-end offensive guy in his own right, but losing Chara on the PK could be huge, especially when you look at the guys replacing him.
Gonna be a rough year. Injuries, losing Krug and Chara. Young guys trying to step up which hasn't worked well in the past when they tried. Still missing a second line winger and now a LHD.. This doesn't feel like a playoff team to me
I wonder if Nick Ritchie will come into camp in the best shape of his career, feeling better than he ever has, and having worked on his skating exhaustively.

I know MLB teams couldn’t insure some of those huge contracts - the premiums were so steep it didn’t make sense
