Last week, I started my 2017-18 Bruins’ prospect pyramid project (say that 5 times fast…) with a resounding bang. You can find Part 1 here. Granted, the bang was literally a piece only on Charlie McAvoy (spoilers!), but I digress. For Tier 2, I looked at players who don’t project as the elite game-breaker that McAvoy does, but still have the potential to … Keep Reading

To blatantly borrow a brilliant idea from one Steve Dangle, I have decided to build a prospect pyramid, rather than a ranking or list. Honestly, one could quibble over the exact placing of prospects on a list for hours, and it really isn’t worth the argument over such minuscule differences in opinion.

PuckNerd’s Way Too Early 2017-18 Bruin’s Roster

By:  Spencer Fascetta                                          Twitter: @PuckNerdHockey

 

With the season right around about 10 corners and 2 months out, I decided to use CapFriendly’s ArmChair GM feature and experiment with what I believe the Bruin’s roster will realistically look like come Opening Night of the 2017-18 season. Ryan Spooner was just resigned to a new 1-year deal, and David Pastrnak is still negotiating his first contract extension, and both of them … Keep Reading

How many times over the last 2-3 years have we heard the terms “speed,” “youth,” and “skill” thrown around the NHL? The league is evolving at a rapid rate, and many teams have already started to adopt the new model. Enforcers seem to have been put on the “endangered” list, conceding to the less … Keep Reading

The 2017 NHL Draft is approaching quickly with a different feel to it than in year’s past. This year there isn’t really that is anyone considered to be a franchise player like Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews and Jack Eichel in years past. It’s also not considered to be as deep of a draft as year’s past, where the depth of … Keep Reading
