I would go the same route as last year and see what happens in camp , got a feeling we will be pleasantly surprised with the Yutes and a healthy Bjork.. Marchand/Bergron/Pasta Debrusk/Krejci/Donato Heinen/Backes/Bjork Nordstrom?/Kuraly/Aciari I know I do my version of the line up too much but it helps me keep it straight. I’m ok with your version but I think there will be a few Kids making some Vets uncomfortable which is a good problem. Also like to start the year with Pasta on Dk’s line ..

Aciari had 9 penalty minutes, that was the least of all Bruins who were regulars. I gotta admit, he's not one of my favorite Bruins. If Nordstrom continues to be a very effective penalty killer and Wagner, well I have always loved his game although he do have limits. I guess they cant all be 30 goal scorers. He's good at what he does. That's an excellent 4th line grinder who hits alot and score 10-12 goals and goes to the dirty areas. Point being, with Kuraly centering 4th line, Aciari MIGHT be out of a job. I can see the Bruins maybe putting him on waivers although not usually DS's course of action..
Chris Wagner actually was 3rd in league in hits, Lucic was 2nd with ONE MORE HIT, LOL.. Chris had 273, Milan 274..I forget who was 1st, sorry. Aciari was something like 56th with 152 hits.

Madmarx, did you notice my lines?? It was the post right after KJC's lines. Reason I asked was I have Krejci centering Pasta and Jake. Please have a look and tell me what you think. Thanks.

Yes I think Pasta is better suited with Krejci and Donato slides up to the first line , Wagner is a banger much needed the lineup as well 👍

With more Kids arriving this year Donato Bjork healthy among others you would think Butch would shake things up , you pretty much could put anyone with Bergy and they would succeed..

Man that was awesome. Thanks for posting Crafar!! Spoked B.. There's actually 105 pages, geez, I only got to #19 Joe Thornton..I'll read so much every so often. Excellent write ups on the players too. Numba 4 Bobby Orr With all due respect to anybody else that wore this number in a Bruins sweater, No. 4 belongs to Bobby Orr always and forever. The greatest player in NHL history and an absolute game-changing force that forever altered the way that the defensemen was played. It’s hard to think of another player in Boston sports history more associated with his number than Orr. Maybe Larry Bird at No. 33 or Tom Brady at No. 12, but it’s definitely debatable. {Nfld77- is it really debatable?} Best of the Rest: Bob Armstrong. ttachment id="169" thumbnail="1"] Attachments:

There were a couple of head scratchers in there, but they were mostly up in the higher numbers where only one, or two players have worn that particular number.

73 – Michael Ryder He won a Stanley Cup in his final season in Boston, but it was an up-and-down experience for Ryder with the Bruins. He ended up making a game-winning play in the 2011 postseason when he made an emergency save on a puck in front of the net, and finished with 63 goals and 127 points in three seasons in Boston. Best of the Rest: Charlie McAvoy. No disrespect to Ryder but I think Charlie passes him on this list very shortly.

I've said it before and I will say it again - here's to hoping McAvoy and Carlo evolve into our version of Keith and Seabrook, respectively.

True... but there will be generational Players that could Honour past Ledgends and I think would be awesome.. Maybe out of respect you would have to Play five Years before acquiring a Ledgends number .. The Alexander Daige clause 😉

Even if numbers became available I don’t think we would ever have to worry about certain numbers (#4) but one would think Management would love this ($$$) as well as fans for the most part ..

I like honoring too but there needs to be exceptions. Nobody should ever wear 4 or 77.
