The Shocking Truth Behind Why the Bruins’ No. 7 Pick Could Make or Break Their Future
The Bruins also don’t have a center prospect who is capable of filling a top-six role anytime soon. Boston’s prospect pool is consistently rated among the worst in the league. For example, The Athletic’s Scott Wheeler rated the Bruins No. 30 out of 32 teams in his latest prospect pool rankings back in January.
Matt Poitras and Georgii Merkulov could become NHL regulars, but they are not going to be franchise centers. Veteran Elias Lindholm is being paid like a top-six center, but he did not perform at that level in his debut season with the Bruins.
