It’s great to have names like Tyler Toffoli, Brenden Dillon and Chris Kreider listed as potential trades but realistically this Boston Bruins side, with almost an identical line-up to last year can go just as far as they did then.
You only need look at the way previous Stanley Cup champions have tinkered with their roster at the deadline to realise that going big doesn’t always make a difference. The Columbus Blue Jackets last season are proof of that; they hedged their bets, went all-in and were unceremoniously dumped out second round.
