    Is Charlie McAvoy a Top-10 Defenseman in the NHL?

    On this episode of Bruins Beat, Evan Marinofsky and Conor Ryan take a hard look at where the Bruins stand financially compared to the rest of the NHL. With the salary cap landscape shifting league-wide, how does Boston's situation actually stack up — and do they have the flexibility to make meaningful moves before the season starts? Evan and Conor break down the numbers, identify where the Bruins are handcuffed, and where there might be more room to maneuver than people realize. Then the conversation turns to Charlie McAvoy — is he still an elite defenseman, or has the conversation around him shifted? His contract, his performance, and his place among the NHL's best blue liners are all on the table. And to close it out, a bigger picture question: in a league that feels wide open, are the Bruins still relevant?

    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!
