Since his time as a Bruin sadly is over, would love to see where people rank him in the pantheon of great Bruins defensemen. We all know the embarrassment of riches the Bruins have had on the blueline all time.
Personally I have him firmly ahead of Park at 4th all time.
He was such a force on and off the ice for the Bruins, and realistically you can say he was the biggest factor in the turnaround of the franchise when he signed in 2006. He was captain for all 14 seasons and you couldn't ask for a better one. He held every player responsible to do the off ice work needed as well as giving it all on the ice.
A physical force and in the conversation for greatest defensive D man of all time.
Norris: 1,2,2,3,3,3,4,5
3x AS-1
4x AS-2
3 Cup Finals
2011 Cup
My personal rankings of Bruins defensemen is:
Orr
Bourque
Shore
Chara
Park
Clapper
Hitchman
Flaman
