I agree there are problems, but I hardly think it’s a result of management not liking talent and wanting “blue collar” players.
One of the first things Sweeney did was trade “the ultimate Bruin” out of town in Milan Lucic.
This brass is obsessed w heaviness it would seem up until this summer and I would argue they would take it all day if they could.
JFK was better than Frederic. Moore is better than Miller yet sits when all healthy. Backes has played himself out of the lineup, and I’m not convinced Heinen isn’t being showcased.
You’re opposed to Heinen being showcased? Would he not be someone you would include in an enticing deadline deal?
I still miss Carl Soderberg. He’s gotta be my favorite non-Bruin. Would take him back in a second.
i was a big carl guy too. but what the F was he doing on that interference with mcavoy?
maybe he had a malmo flashback and got hives.
Is K Miller playing ahead of Moore because of his physicality or is it that Miller is more of an established guy and Moore is a newbie ? You could be right but I’m not sure it is that black and white . I don’t particularly like the K Miller - Krug pairing and would like to see it split up .This brass is obsessed w heaviness it would seem up until this summer and I would argue they would take it all day if they could.

John Moore has been solid since coming back from his run of being a healthy scratch.
would keep him unless it’s a big upgrade like Stone. Heinen should be top 6 for this team over DeBeusk and or Cehlarik
Dad power strikes again!
Congrats to the Moores
Yeah those 4 points in his last 9 games and even his last two games made a play in each game that directly resulted in Bruins goals scored.
Has Trent Frederic even generated a scoring chance yet?
But he had a fight and rubbed out a couple guys with hits, so he gets to stick around. (and I actually really like Frederic).
I do have an agenda, and that's is this management team has no idea how to construct a forward group in the 2019 version of NHL hockey. And the game since the all-star break have been more than proof positive of that.

This, so much this.The games recently have been a struggle but there are some really positive takes as well. The Bruins finally beat Washington and at the same time Tuukka broke the franchise record for wins, they finally beat the Avs in Boston and they played for Bergy in his 1000th game and won. There is mental toughness to this team even though it seems the opposite at times. Get the trade deadline over with and let's see how much stress that takes off the young players.
