I don't disagree with this, though I'm not sure Lucic's game is the difference between his team's 2011 Cup win, and the Neely-era teams' inability to do the same.

The 2011 & 2013 Bruins were deeper and more balanced than any iteration of them during Neely's tenure.

not true.

the 86 and 88 Bruins (Presidents Trophy) were both finalists and just as deep.

Do you seriously not know?

First of all, the 1986 Bruins were neither finalists nor President's Trophy winners.

As for the '88 Bruins, well, suffice it to say that the problem was less a lack of Lucic than it was an abundance of this guy:

It's never just one factor.. But I'm just saying I think Lucic has a smarter approach to his role which will likely extend his carreer were Neely was more talented more guts ect..

Sure we would all respect him more he fought all the thoughest goons but that would increase his chances if injuries, it would reduce his icetime, if You were his coach I'm pretty sure you would'nt want that

Sometimes I forget that he also played for the Habs.

i meant 88 and 90. and there was no gretzky on the 90 team.

while you may be right about the oilers roster you're wrong about a lack of deoth on the Bruins.

He didn't say there was a lack of deoth OR depth on those teams. He just said that the recent teams were deeper.

of course it is.

still has nothing to do with the Bruins
