The Boston Bruins will need to find the right person to fill in the holes left in the lost season. Milan Lucic and Reilly Smith‘s departure now require the B’s to find the right two players to replace them. Jimmy Hayes is one of those players, and it’s critical that the Bruins need to put Hayes in the right spot for opening night.
A lot of people were hoping that Jimmy Hayes would be a great replacement for Milan Lucic. While Hayes could do a very adequate job as a top-six forward for the Black and Gold, even his 6-foot-6 frame won’t quite be able to put the kind of numbers that Lucic could.
