It's stupid for anyone to say a team is unprepared at the draft table. They have their own internal list, just like a public list, and they choose the next available player. We know the Bruins scouts pick differently than other teams. In the 2018 draft they got Andersson in the 2nd and Lauko in the 3rd and they mentioned they had both on their list for 1st round talent.
You can absolutely argue whether their evaluation of talent is good or bad but not that they don't know who they are drafting. A simple google search of 'who did the Bruins interview at 2015 combine' returns Haggs article as the top entry. There are 12 confirmed interviews and 2 confirmed non-interviews in this article. https://www.nbcsports.com/boston/boston-bruins/bruins-finish-out-busy-combine-week-filled-interviews
3 years later, I certainly have some doubts on 3 of the 6 guys chosen in the first two rounds but 2 are established NHL players and a 3rd, Lauzon, is pushing to stay (or be a high value trade chip). It also seems like they may have hit on 3rd rounder, Vladar, and 6th rounder, Hughes. But I also know that at 21 years old, I'm not prepared to write off anyone in the 2015 draft just yet.
