2/13- Bruins @ Canucks

I still think they can make the playoffs, but at this point I don't see how they can get very far if they do. That said, I don't see the value in selling low just to make moves for moves sake.

 
This is where I am as well.
 
They're in cap purgatory with the submarining of the $CAD, and it'll be painful getting out. Chiarelli making panic moves to try and save his job will only compound the retooling they'll have to do this summer - and it'll be on Neely to ensure that doesn't happen.

aging or regressing to me means lack of talent. When you age you lose talent and sonetimes players aren't as good as one year they had, like Reilly Smith for example.

Also, this team's philosophy has been depth and rolling four lines. Campbell and Paille regressing means they've turned into giant piles of suck, a complete offensive void that other teams can throw their weakest D pairing against without any worry. I'd advocate blowing up that line and getting the kids up to see If any of them can contribute to the big club, but it'll never happen because Soup and Paille are both PKers. Blech.
