""We got bounced in the first round. So yeah, we need more talent. We need more speed," Bruins president Cam Neely said at a press conference Wednesday."
""That's something that we have to try to acquire in one way, shape, or form. But you look at the elite teams in the league, we're not there.""
""And like I said two years ago, when you strip it down like we did, you're not going to be there in one season. So it's going to take some time.""
The Boston Bruins achieved a 100-point regular season and returned to the Stanley Cup Playoffs after a poor previous season. David Pastrnak reached 100 points for the fourth consecutive year, while Morgan Geekie and Pavel Zacha set career highs. Jeremy Swayman was a Vezina Trophy finalist. Despite these successes, the Bruins lost in the first round to the Buffalo Sabres, highlighting the need for more talent and speed. The team has $16.4 million in salary cap space for the upcoming offseason to address these issues.
