With talks of Franchise Four players within sports teams being all of the rage right now, it seems fitting to take that up a notch and rank the all-time top five Boston Bruins players at each “position”. While there is enough history within the Bruins organization to list off five of each forward position, the “positions” will be limited to forwards, defensemen, and goaltenders, and if enough comments show interest, even coaches. It would be easy to write about fifteen forwards, but the prestige to go along with a “top-five” list should really be limited to the top-five.
To start this series off, the forward group will be evaluated first.
