Bruins Prepare For Franchise-Altering Draft
For the non-Bruins fans who read Ultimate Boston, I guess I'll give my apologies for the overload of Bruins information today. Don't worry, once the almighty decision is made tonight, it will be a quiet, anxious summer awaiting the drop of the puck in the season opener from Prague.
Actually, I can't say that. In all likelihood, I'll be joining the rest of the Bruins fans in reveling about the opportunities all summer long.
Taylor or Tyler? It's been asked for a year now, and the answer comes tonight. It seems as thought Peter Chiarelli is happy standing pat without any trades to bolster the roster. He will wait until one of these two studs lands in his lap before electing to wheel and deal anymore. Which will it be? The overwhelming consensus is Seguin, with Hall going to Edmonton. But news broke this afternoon regarding Edmonton's serious push to get the #2 pick from Boston in addition to their #1. Now, while we all know that would never happen, it may be a sign that Edmonton isn't too comfortable choosing between these two great talents. Add in the fact that they still haven't shown their hand regarding their choice, and Bruins fans still have reasonable hope that either of the two players will drop to #2.
Tune into Versus to catch the draft action. It starts at 7 PM EDT. Will this Bruins roster look the same at this time tomorrow? The next few hours will truly be a franchise-changing period.
