If you look at Chicago at their heyday or Pittsburgh during their back to back cup wins, they didn't exactly have huge bruising d-cores. They built their defense around smart, mobile, two-way defencemen. Sweeney seems to have tried to remodel Bruins defence post-2015 based on that blueprint and it got them to Game 7 of Stanley Cup finals and to President's Trophy the following year.
