11 games in, this club is up and down.
The sample size is limited, but they've clearly had some success against weaker teams while struggling against stronger clubs.
One interesting thing to consider is that with the modified schedule last season, this Bruins team did not play games against Tampa, Carolina, Toronto, and Florida.
So, whats the answer?
Do you stay the course?
Give it another 10-15 games?
I don't see them "blowing it up" and dealing away pieces for picks, and part of that is their pieces of value are ones you want to build around.
So what else can you do?
What does a hockey trade look like?
Are you willing to trade big pieces for big pieces?
* Are there other clubs mired in mediocrity or in a rebuild that might be willing to deal?
* Are you interested in a franchise altering deal meaning dealing one of your pillars?
