The Bruins are defensively in trouble right now, but trading Pastrnak is not the smart move to bolster their defense. They haven't made great decisions over the past few seasons, but are not far off from a few key small moves to tighten up. - Rinosaur
Not really though.... young talent is close. Carlo, McAvoy, Krug, Zboril, Lauzon and a few other specs close to being a possible good NHL'er mixed with K. Miller the future is as good as it's been in a very long time.
I'd LOVE Hanafin but I don't trade Pastrnak for anything right now... he's all that's good about the Bruins right now.

Krug is already established. Carlo is close and McAvoy still has to prove himself. Again, I said you guys are only a few small moves away. Your defense isn't very good NOW and will be SOON. I think there are probably band-aid options.
Moving a player like Pastrnak is unnecessary and extreme. |

Exactly! Just saying that as this D has been a dumpster fire for a few years so this is the first time to have some optimism in the D since they went to the Cup final vs CHI |

If the Bruins honestly were to trade Pasta before their aged, not aging, core, then the entire front office needs a major restructuring - unless Pasta is being entirely unreasonable and asking for a McDavid like deal.
A 30 goal season is awesome for a 21 year old. But, from the Bruins stand point, they have him by the balls by RFA and they should be trying to get value from that, versus skipping right over that.
The bottom line is Chara, while still effective and seen as a huge leader for their young D, it's time to cut ties as soon as possible. Maybe at the deadline, even if they are some how contenders. If they let these kids rely on Chara to be the man and #1, they will have a long adjustment period, if they ever adjust to life without him. You can't let everyone get too comfortable with a solid #1 near the end of his career/contract. Too many teams struggle trying to adjust, or didn't have a true evaluation of their shortcomings and they've spent to the cap or have signed other D long term who overachieved with a Chara caliber #1. |

Haggerty made some great points and his credibility is beyond question
