Boston Bruins: Is Zach Trotman a Top-4 Defenseman?

Zach Trotman is 24 years old, and should be a lock for a job with the Big club this year as his contract is 1-way for the 2015-16 season. The only question that remains is where he will line up every night. Trotman replaced Dougie Hamilton from injury almost seamlessly last season, and with Hamilton set to sport the flamed C this season, it’s unclear who the Bruins have penciled in to fill his role to start the year. Considering how well Trotman performed to close out the year, it would be very puzzling not to see him at the very least, get a long look at the right side opposite captain Zdeno Chara.
