Great Goaltending and D but worrying offence

Yeah..... I think the Bruins will struggle to score this year. Not sold on Zacha and Coyle as a 1-2 punch.

I do think Geekie is going to be one to watch. Loads of upside there and was buried in Carolina and Seattle. That signing may have been one of the shwerdest moves of the offseason.

Overall..... they are going to hit and grind out games. I don't see them in the top 4 in the Atlantic, but will be in the WC mix.

trade one of your goalies and get a 1C in the offseason or the trade deadline and this will look like a cup contender imo.

The likelihood of the Bruins getting a real 1C next offseason is dwindling by the minute as players re-sign. They won't be able to get one for a goalie alone. I'm starting to wonder what they should do next offseason assuming they can't get a high-end 1C. Maybe go after a high-end UFA wing and try to get back into the 1st/2nd rounds of the draft? Scoring will definitely be an issue this season, and I don't think that will change in '24-'25 by either standing pat or chasing middling center UFAs.

Zacha had the potential to be a 1C we will find out this season, I'm assuming the hope is Poitras matures into the 2C, leaving Coyle down in the third line or maybe shifting to wing if Beecher matutes into a 3C. I think this year is going to be make it break for how the future B's look. Any way you look at it, they will go into 24/25 with a **** ton of cap space to make things work.

Personally if we target nylander or Reinhart as our 1C in UFA I’d be more then okay with that going forward.

Nylander brings the skill of a 1C and Reinhart provides great 2 way play which bruins like from their Centers.
Either or which change our team look big time.

Especially if Poitras becomes some special maybe a krech 2.0
