Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Who should the Bruins go after for defensemen?
Q: Any of the players mentioned could be the best fit for the Bruins' back end, who stands out to you as the primary target?
The most sensible targets are big, two-way defensemen who can move the puck and contribute offensively, with willingness to discuss term and salary cap implications; Rasmus Anderson remains a strong option if he's open to Boston, otherwise they'll explore in-house options and sleeper candidates.
How far away are the Bruins from being Cup contenders?
Q: If Bednar becomes available, would you hire him as Bruins coach?
Joe Haggerty believes Sturm did a strong job and would keep him, while acknowledging that Bednar could be an option but emphasizes not making a coaching change after a single season; he would prefer continuity and evaluating the trajectory rather than a midstream move.
Who will the Bruins go out and get the defensemen position this summer?
Q: What two moves should they make?
They should bring in a right-shot defenseman and also promote a young player like Potter to test his development at the NHL level, aligning immediate needs with long-term growth rather than overpaying in free agency.
Who will the Bruins go out and get the defensemen position this summer?
Q: What two moves do you think the Bruins will make this offseason?
They will pursue a right-shot defenseman to bolster the top four and likely add scoring depth up front, while also giving a young player like Matt Potter a chance to prove himself in the NHL, balancing upgrades with development opportunities.
What are the Bruins going to do at the center position?
Q: What are two realistic moves for the Bruins to make this off season?
One move discussed is pursuing a high-caliber right-shot defenseman who can move the puck and contribute offensively, while another is evaluating external center options or accelerating internal development to fill the number-one center role, balancing cap implications and long-term value.
