Ahh good-ol' PC. Actually though his hockey trades were pretty much dynamite. I get a feeling after seeing how this B's crew of young
players have come along that
Donnie Sweeney actually knows what he's doing. His hockey trades so far have been so-so but now that he's most likely switching (mental) gears to building a deep playoff team, possibly a championship team that can sustain for several years that he will blow us and the rest of the league away with an awesome trade or three. The Bruins are starting to have the look of scary team. While watching the last few games I started seeing the ghosts of the old Soviet Russian teams and their elite passing. This team skates like the wind, pass more accurately than most any Boston Bruins team that I've witnessed since I started watching hockey 1969/'70 and they don't rely on just one or two lines. Butch has got them drinking some sweet Kool-Aid and they're enjoying it.
Now all DS needs to do is to figure out who to add and subtract without disturbing the locker room. Simmonds would be a +add IMO, Kane would sooner or later be a distraction, again IMO. Too bad too because I really like both players, Kane is younger but still, the FO would be holding their collective breath is they acquired him.
