The Boston Bruins signed Derek Forbort to be a top-pairing, left-shot defenseman. Through nine games, Forbort has yet to solidify himself next to Charlie McAvoy.
One of the other big issues is he’s been unable to stop quick, opposing top forwards. That was on full display Saturday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

We also dove deep into the impact Patrice Bergeron has had on this city and what his future will be. Luedeke shared an awesome story of Bergeron from his draft night.
