Only new out of Boston is Chara's injury is the PCL. Nothing on Hamilton. Who goes nowhere after this season btw.

Trading Chara would have done wonders for the Bruins both in the long-term and short-term.

Every opposition forward in their division would be pretty happy for sure.

That's such a misconception now. Chara used to be that type of defender, but now he is barely mobile enough to cover his zone. This might seem like such a hindsight argument, but I proposed it before the season even started when the Bruins were having cap problems signing Reilly and Krug.

When the rules change in the playoffs, he's still not the guy I'd want my top forwards playing against. I'd rather play against Seidenberg over a 7 games series(nothing against him).

Well we all know why the Canucks won't like to end up playing the Bruins in any game that means a thing Not that it will happen again any time soon.

Yeah, the Bruins are really declining. I'm fine with playing Pitt or TB in the SCF though.

Where's Tanner's opinion? Was looking forward to him mentioning a Yandle for Bergeron.... or Krejci swap

It's amazing what being in salary cap hell would do to you. We got boychuk for a couple of second round picks. Don't get me wrong that's a DECENT deal that Boston got at the time. Looking at it now, with how boychuk has played, Boston would have to pay an arm and a leg to get him back. I'm actually curious what the return would be. Boston is still kinda in cap trouble, so a roster player would have to come back. Not to mention with chara out, the 2nd rounders would have to be upgraded. At least one would have to be a 1st rounder. I've always been wary of snow, but he had a phenomenal off season
