Description

Have Fredric center 4th line with Wagner and Kuraly. Fredric had a great season in Providence he should get the call up.

Stud also had a great season in providence, he is definitely the future 2 center for the Bruins when Krejci is gone but with the depth at center we have I think he should play wing on the third line to get him accustomed to the nhl level.

Inject some youth into the lineup and create competition between young guys like Bjork and other younger guys so there is no complacency, play whoever deserves it guys will work harder

Get Bjork in the lineup.

Frederic will need to prove that he can stay in the lineup and not just by fighting.

Vladar $3M???

Studnicka seems ready, Lauzon keep him in

Seriously for the good of the Bruins' franchise Chara would need to retire after this season, Vaakanainen and Clifton deserve more opportunities

Chara is still one of the best defensive D. Plays big minutes and lead (if not for Carlo some games) on the PK. Leadership is also a factor.

Vaakanainen didn't regress but from what I've heard, wasn't at his best this season in Providence. Playing another year in the AHL, get couple NHL games in case of injuries/end of next season will be good for him. Clifton, he wasn't as good as he was last year, didn't play for two months and he's an okay top6 D. One of our Ds that deserve more playing time: Matt Grzelcyk.

You’re not wrong but i still see him coming back for at least next year. Chara is still an effective player and a work horse on the PK, but those young guys like clifton and Vaak would probably be in the lineup of most nhl teams theres just a lot of depth on defense. Plus Krug may not comeback so vaak or clifton would immediately get in the lineup next year.
