Boston literally lost their top 2 centremen, and 3rd and 4th best wingers. I wouldn’t trust a Zacha-Coyle-Geekie 1-2-3 as a lock for a playoff team.
3rd and 4th best wingers? Hall and Bergeron weren't half as impactful as people think. Especially Bergeron, he played around 16 minutes a night last year, very little PK work and was fed loads of ozone starts. His loss will not be half as big as people think.
