@Savageboston At the very least I want to see examples where they were the difference on winning a championship. In any sport. Seems more like owners wanting to cheap out on hiring scouts to me.
@jimsoxfan Breslow is actually quite good when it comes to get the pitching part right. Needs help with the offense (although the Durbin deal is suddenly got a life line).
@MikeMcMahonCHN Not sure how hefty that price is. The #9 overall is decent but there is a strong possibility all the others will be low 1st round. If Ottawa doesn’t come out of this with at least two decent NHL level players it’s a total fail on their part.
@ConorRyan_93 I feel Sweeney can be blamed for a LOT but not on this one. Tkachuk was never coming to Boston. There was literally 0% chance of this happening. There is a lot of misdirected anger tonight.
@ConorRyan_93 In the next three years the highest picks the Bruins have will be their own, sadly. Those Florida/Toronto picks will be end of the first round.
@theripsnorter This may be more anecdotal than you people are willing to admit. I live in an affluent town on the south shore and my neighborhood is crawling with school age kids. Good houses are still being snatched up quickly. The “people aren’t having kids” thing is starting to flip.
