Everyone knew the Bruins’ biggest issue heading into this season would be defense. The Bruins responded to that knowledge by...doing nothing, really. This past week’s signing of Christian Ehrhoff to a PTO could prove to be a shrewd step in the right direction, but the B’s didn’t make the defensive splash many fans were hoping for.
Instead, they’ll plug onward with what they have: Zdeno Chara (aging), Kevan Miller (used above where he should be), Adam McQuaid (oft-injured), Torey Krug (USA!) and then throw the rest in a blender: Ehrhoff (should he make it), Joe Morrow, Brandon Carlo, Colin Miller.
