I sometimes wonder if there is some sort of widespread animosity by other teams against the Bruins (on the ownership/management level) that makes it more difficult to make deals. I get the impression that the Jacob's family are the Jerry Jones family of the NHL and as such, teams tend to demand "more" in deals with us making them harder to agree to. Or maybe it's just mismanagement...
We can't seem to fix a problem (by any means) that has existed for many years now (secondary scoring/second line winger).
