A forgettable season draws to a close.
The last time the Bruins were really in a position like this, they returned with new uniforms; a new GM; a new coach and a new captain. That kicked off the most successful era of Bruins hockey in my lifetime.
I really hope there’s a new era beginning next season and not just more of the same. Time for new faces and new ideas.
Brett Peterson is the assistant GM of the Florida Panthers and GM of the USMNT. He might make a good GM here, or Vaughn Karpan - assistant GM in Las Vegas. That might be where I would start, and I’d let them hire a new coaching staff and run the draft this year.
But there’s still one game left that I will miss because of work.
Just get this over with so we can all move on to better days ahead.
