This is why we'll never know how the kids will do with invested playing time.

You keep bringing up Brown.

Lysell and Georgii deserve a call up.

And thus...the f*** the kids aspect is still alive

Because the Bruins have no need for speed, skill, or scoring touch. They need a 4th line, hard-working, 'safe' grinder. That much should be obvious if you've been watching the team lately.

He works his bag off every shift unlike most of the roster

I think the Bruins would have them up if they think they would help, No?

Sure. But they don't play long enough or get significant minutes.

It's just fustrating

That he does. I’ve got nothing against Brown, just don’t like the call up when the Bruins have much bigger issues than whether a 4th liner works hard for the 8 minutes he plays.

Exactly. If effort was this teams issue, great bring up Brown, but unfortunately he does nothing to help the speed/skill issues on this roster

We went and spent our money in free agency to get the best replacements we could.

But now we are 3rd from the bottom in the conference with a -24 goal differential.

Can anyone explain what went wrong and where the Bruins need to go from here to fix it?

Get rid of Sweeny. The silk lining in this issue is if the Bruins continue to falter they have a chance at a better pick in the next draft. Sweeny screwed the pooch the last draft big time and should have been canned then for that reason. 7 round draft and the Bs never picked until the 4th rnd. Missed the 5th I believe and got the 6th and 7th. All the highly skilled draft picks were already gone by the time the Bruins picked. Finding a needle in a haystack is not a great strategy. Sweeny can't find the haystack never mind the needle.
