    Looking Ahead to a STACKED 2027 NHL Free Agency Class

    On this episode of Bruins Beat, Evan Marinofsky goes solo to break down one of the most debated questions heading into next season — who are the Bruins' top two centers, and should Elias Lindholm even be one of them? Evan makes the case for a shake-up, arguing the Lindholm-Pastrnak pairing just isn't working and that Pavel Zhaka and Matt Poitras deserve bigger roles down the middle. Then he pivots to the 2026 free agent class — is it actually worth saving cap space for, or is building through free agency a relic of the past? Jason Robertson is the name to watch. And to close it out, Evan digs up a wild 2021 trade proposal that would have sent Sidney Crosby to Boston — and honestly, it's hard not to wonder what could have been. 0:00 – Intro 1:33 – State of the Bruins: what needs to change 3:09 – Line combinations & top six forward debate 5:10 – Lindholm, Pastrnak, Zacha & the center situation 9:27 – Expectations for the young core this season 10:35 – PrizePicks 11:53 – 2026 free agency class: is it worth waiting for? 14:38 – Why you can't build through free agency anymore 18:39 – What if the Bruins had traded for Sidney Crosby in 2021? 22:37 – Outro Bruins on CLNS Media is Powered by: 💰 PrizePicks - Sign up at http://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/CLNS & Download the app today and use code CLNS to get $150 instantly in Lineups if you win your first $5 Lineup!
