Don Sweeney shares insight on Zdeno Chara’s new role with Bruins

The Bruins are looking to build a new foundation of core players this offseason.

But as Don Sweeney and his staff begin this process of forging a new chapter for this Original Six franchise, they’re brought in an old friend to work with a revamped roster.

In late January, Kevin Paul Dupont of The Boston Globe reported that former Bruins captain Zdeno Chara had rejoined the team in a “front office consultant’s role”.

“The Boston Bruins are excited to be exploring the opportunity to welcome Zdeno Chara in an advisory role that supports our players and coaches,” Sweeney said in a statement following Dupont’s report.
