So it has been over a year since my last post here. I have been busy with making another baby boy! He is 2 months old now, happy and healthy.
So what's new?? My Boston Bruins are dong pretty good locking up their core players and picking up some new free agents as well. The new salary cap will take some getting used to. I think the GM's should get together after this season and discuss top player salaries. There are too many players getting close to 7 million per year. Teams seem to be forced to pay out top dollar to their restricted free agents because many of them will be unrestricted next year (Joe Thornton). This just isn't right. With the new pay structure Joe should not have gotten a huge raise, especially with the way he played the past 2 seasons. Thankfully we only have one real star to pay 7 million. Poor Tampa :(
That said I'm very happy to have Thorton back. The roster is shaping up well although it would be nice to have atleast one more defenceman with experience. Currently we have 6 centers that have a legitimate chance of making the team. Hilbert and Boyes are great scorers but they will be hard pressed to keep their jobs at center. Lets hope they can play the wing! Haven't heard crap from the Bruins in the last few days, hopefully that means he is busy meeting with all the restricted player agents. We need to get them signed in the next week or two.
