Still early in the season and with the play they have shown, their record really could be much worse. Will they turn it around and at least make the playoffs? Possibly, but if yes, they really won´t accomplish anything. The real problem is the structure of the roster and the future outlook. Unfortunately when Sweeney has cap space he is like a kid who gets 5 dollars from his grandma. Spending it as fast as possible on any crap he can get instead of saving it on something big and useful.

I guess what concerns me is the lack of passion with this team.............

There are off-ice issues going on starting with the health of Papa Jacobs as it has been at least 18 months since he has been seen at any NHL event. One has to assume Deleware North is exploring buying the Celtics to ensure no competing arena.

The Bruins have been lucky so far as Ottawa, Buffalo and Detroit have sputtered and Montreal is a mess.

If Sweeney isn't going to fire Monty soon then do something, anything to shake up this clueless crew ASAP.
Sweeney fires Monty. Neely fires Sweeney. Jacobs fires Neely. The seasons starts again. This is the shake up the Bruins need. Don't just fire Montgomery because he was a bad hire, because he was a bad hire. The guy that fired so many good coaches to get this guy Montgomery because he will play the youth. But the Bruins don't have that many good young players to play. Firing Cassidy was a save your job, Sweeney for not getting talent to win long term. Every Bruins Executive is trying to save their job except Jacobs. BTW replacing the Jacobs family would be an improvement as well.

Charlie Jacob just gave the FO a vote of confidence in the offseason. He doesn´t see that the writing is on the wall and some fans still don´t see too, as making the playoffs was seen as a big accomplishment. Monty isn´t the problem, it´s the roster structure ... Unfortunately I think we have to brace ourselves that they are some very meh years on the horizon.

Ah, the dreaded vote of confidence. "Good Anakin, good"-I mean good Charlie, good.

I have heard from trusted sources that negotiations are happening

Bruins and Sabres trade franchises :oops:
Penguins and Bruins then trade franchises :oops:

When the Zamboni chips settle you have

Delaware North is in a position to redevelop downtown Buffalo which is in its DNA
Terry Pegula gets a chance to redevelop Pittsburgh and the Boston royal family gets stronger.
