Backes looks like a poor signing so far and he will take up 6m of cap per year for the next 3 years still.
And hey how great was that to give up on Subban and pick Khudobin instead?
Malcolm's stats with Vegas:
13 wins 4 losses 2.68 GAA and 91% save percentage.
We are just very fortunate that the Bruins have been very good drafting the past 3 years.
But our other acquisitions have looked pretty poor if we're being honest.
Krejci's decline over the past 2 years doesn't help either. 63->54->44 points.
Sweeney needs to stop playing checkers and show us some chess moves. He's shown to be far below the class of DA or BB in the GM department.
We can chalk up this year's playoff knockout as a 'development' year but this offseason becomes critical for the future if the Bruins are serious about becoming contenders.
