So far this offseason, the Boston Bruins have made some interesting moves. They elected to go with a lesser-known, bottom-pairing defenseman in Derek Forbort instead of one of the big names in Ryan Suter or Keith Yandle. Ultimately, I think general manager Don Sweeney made to correct choice here, going with the younger, more physical defenseman.

The B’s also completely overhauled their bottom-six forward group as they signed three veteran forwards in Nick Foligno, Tomas Nosek, and Erik Haula on Day 1 of Free Agency.
