When the Bruins left Colin Miller unprotected for the Las Vegas Golden Knights, Bruina Twitter went into an uproar – self included. The more I thought about it, the more I am okay with it. Does it suck that the Bruins could lose a 24 year old defenseman who could move the puck? Sure. However, if you look at the “cupboard”, it is filled with these type of players.
If you look at the current NHL roster, the Bruins already have Charlie McAvoy and Torey Krug – two guys who are very adept at moving the puck from blue line to blue line.
