For the first time since 2011, the Boston Bruins are set to pick in the top 10 of an NHL Draft.
By the time Boston lands on the clock with the No. 7 pick in the upcoming draft, the Bruins should be in prime position to bolster their barren prospect pool with a promising player.
A dearth in young, impactful centermen has significantly lowered Boston’s ceiling in the post-Bergeron era — and stands as the most pressing need for a retooling Bruins roster.
One of the many pivots in Boston’s draft range like Brady Martin, Jake O’Brien, Roger McQueen, or even Caleb Desnoyers would be a welcome addition for a franchise that needs to build up their roster down the middle once again.
