I like Carlo but not sure about pairing him with Krug.. I agree. I would go with Miller. Someone who is a true stay at home guy, or McQuaid.

Carlo will be our shut down guy in the future and I'm not worried about him at all.
Just to shift gears. I'm guilty of lumping both Krug and Grz into the same player pot and I'm starting to think I may be wrong. I've mentioned on a bunch of occasions that I'm not fond of small D-men but I'm warming up to Grzelcyk. Both D are similar in size and I think skating ability but while Krug seems to be better offensively (right now) I think Grzelcyk is more intelligent in his own end. I don't think either would win enough physical battles on the boards to my liking but I'm more impressed with Grz in his decision making, less gambling and more safe I guess.
Someone posted an article a couple of weeks back about using Krug as a trade chip, maybe it's too soon but not a bad idea as long as we keep Z next year. We still have at least 3 legit LD down on the farm and hopefully one of them can push for a job soon.

So his defensive conscience might be a bit more on point than it may otherwise be just so he can impress the coaches and stay in the lineup.

Russia banned from the 2018 Olympics I guess Ovi doesn't have to worry about playing anymore now. They did say that select Russian athletes will be invited to play under a neutral banner. Any athletes from Russia who receive special dispensation to compete will do so as individuals wearing a neutral uniform, and the official record books will forever show that Russia won zero medals.Olympic officials made two seemingly significant concessions to Russia:
¶ Any of its athletes competing under a neutral flag will be referred to as Olympic Athletes from Russia. That is a departure from how the I.O.C. has handled neutral athletes in the past. For example, athletes from Kuwait, which was barred from the 2016 Summer Games, were identified as Independent Olympic Athletes last year in Rio de Janeiro.
¶ Olympics officials said they might lift the ban on Russia in time for the closing ceremony, suggesting the nation’s flag could make a symbolic appearance in the final hours of the Pyeongchang Games.

Great to have your number one turning it around but a little harsh on the backup I thought. He did just take his first regulation loss, no need to write him off. I'd like to see a bigger body of work from Rask as well before I say that he's back but it is encouraging.

“Bruins won't win Cup with Rask in net, and need to start planning for future“ That was Asserty’s article two weeks ago, what a hack.

If Bruins have a team capable of contending including a SOLID defense core, Rask CAN WIN A CUP..

If I’m Philly I wait to the trade deadline a player like Simmonds would fetch them a Kings ransom and possibly put a team over the top .
