The biggest problem with the Bruins is that the owner and his son don't know much about the hockey world, and they rely on Sweeney and Neely to fix everything, when in reality those two should be the first to go.
Z was hired as a special advisor. Only the bruins would potentially hire a guy as GM that has never even been a scout before. Neely isn't going anywhere. Sweeney is 60-40 he stays. The 40 he doesn't is if the rest of the season is like the last two games. The rangers making multiple trades to save their season and Sweeney doing absolutely nothing is just mind bending. Sweeney has done nothing, other than bring up some AHL retread guys.
Chara should replace Sweeney ASAP! He may not have experience as a GM, but he has proven his inate intelligence and couldn't do any worse than Sweeney 👍.
Chara would make a great president. It'd be an upgrade from that knucklehead Neely. Look how he handled the Mitchell Miller situation. Did he ever once ask Sweeney, "Hey Don, you did talk to the victim ... right?"
2015, 2016 & 2017 1st Round misses have killed them today. Should have come out with one of Barzal\Connor in 2015 instead of Senyshyn and one of Thomas\Norris in 2017 instead of Vaak. Should have taken one of Kyrou\ADC instead of Frederic. That would have taken care of their present top 6 issue and really top 2C. Way to go Sweeney.
Boy you guys surely give Joe Sacs a pass as far as team performance... no fire no passion... after 11 years does any of the team hear this guy... no you cant fire Joe too but clearly the message is not landing. Big Z brought Charlie Mac along even though his attention to detail was better then that now...
I don’t get it man…people eat this stuff up. They want Chara and Bergeron to run the team just because they were popular, like OK how about we hire someone who knows what they’re doing and will actually do a good job.
not me. GET RID OF THE PHONY FLUKE 2011. cam needs to get put on the street, sweeney sucks bags of balls. 2011 was a fluke but they will not freaking let go.
The Bruins are too insular. Other than Chiarelli (who broke the 39 year drought) they prefer pedigree for their managers, which is why they fire coaches - not managers.
no. can we please get over the fluke win in 2011. this franchise SUCKS! cam neely SUCKS! it's been over a decade and we still have marchand and grasp for anything 2011. STOP. you guys SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FIRE CAM NEELY FIRE SWEENEY FOUR YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!! LET GO OF THE PAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely! These two must have heard the "FIRE SWEENEY" chants of a couple of weeks ago, something we'd not heard before. I always wanted Chara to return to the fold in some way. Even though I can't somehow see Big Zee being involved in anything of little substance with the team, I have a feeling this announcement is "throwing ashes" in our eyes to take take away some of the glare of blame on these two clods. I'd love to say they can't dodge the heat forever but those Jacobs have such a misguided sense of loyalty to Sweeney and Neely and don't hesitate to state it publically like Junior Jacobs did a couple of weeks ago at the gala. What he shouln't have said was the throwing of support behind "Donnie and Cam" for leading the B's into the playoffs for eight of the ten years at the helm. My translation was "CHA-CHING" from bulging profit margins from 41 sold out home games at TD and the extra revenue generated from any additonal home playoff dates. These two have had a decade to assemble a championship caliber roster like Chiarelli did and failed. The only way I see these two removing the memory of the infamous 2015, three first round draft blunder where Sweeney and Neely placed first round grades on Senyshen and Zboril when they were not of that pedigree and took what could have been a franchise defining moment for years and dropped the ball is to win a Cup. Until then, they're no better than Kyle Dubas.
Chara will add the most value with individual player development. His influence on Mason and Zad would be very useful.
Super good show... and I love Ian M. and Scott, Brian and Brit.
Keep it up
Chara can be an inspirational force for the current roster. His role would be supportive of team attitude and leadership.

CAM NEELY SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED YEARS AGO. SWEENEY IS A BOOB. THEY SUCK!!!!!!!! 2011 was a FLUKE!! AND THEY REFUSE TO LET GO OF IT.
I love that Connor came just to do ad reads 😂
If you’re going to bring anyone back as an advisor, bring back Bergeron!!!
Sweeney and Neely are WAY PAST their expiration date.......
by at least 5 years. NEELY SUCKS
Hopefully, the Jacobs family will turf both Neely and Sweeney.
Also when a retired guy start dipping into his cash pile is when they start looking for the "team roll" to slow the burn...
Chara should replace Sweeney ASAP! He may not have experience as a GM, but he has proven his inate intelligence and couldn't do any worse than Sweeney 👍.
calm down...its been 10 yrs of this crap from Sweeney and Neeley, this is a PR ploy because people are pissed w this shitty front office
Hit the brakes dude . We need ppl who know what THIER job is , and what it takes to win a cup .
one fluke cup in 50 plus years. THIS FRANCHISE SUCKS
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
If he want either job I'd give it to him in a second.
Chara would make a great president. It'd be an upgrade from that knucklehead Neely. Look how he handled the Mitchell Miller situation. Did he ever once ask Sweeney, "Hey Don, you did talk to the victim ... right?"
Thank you.
They just aren’t showing any heart or desire to play hard nosed hockey!! Start playing with reckless some desire for the game.
these men are paid millions, they shouldnt need to be motivated..they dont have alot of talent...shitty contracts and lousy drafting since 2015
2015, 2016 & 2017 1st Round misses have killed them today.
Should have come out with one of
Barzal\Connor in 2015 instead of Senyshyn and one of Thomas\Norris in 2017 instead of Vaak.
Should have taken one of Kyrou\ADC
instead of Frederic.
That would have taken care of their present top 6 issue and really top 2C.
Way to go Sweeney.

I mentioned Bergy as an advisor only not in a management/executive role and I would never recommend Chara for anything!

You're spot on. The answer is to fire the coaches as the answer to front office NEGLIGENCE.
Neely isn't going anywhere. Sweeney IMO is gone after the season this team is not a playoff team
no. can we please get over the fluke win in 2011. this franchise SUCKS! cam neely SUCKS! it's been over a decade and we still have marchand and grasp for anything 2011. STOP. you guys SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FIRE CAM NEELY FIRE SWEENEY FOUR YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!! LET GO OF THE PAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all BS PR, they know the fans hate Sweeney, just a distraction for this shitty roster
