In this episode of Poke The Bear, Conor runs through your latest mailbag questions. Conor breaks down why he thinks Charlie McAvoy did appeal his suspension to start the season and looks at the potential impact it could have on the Bruins defensive lineup to start the season. Conor then breaks down if the Bruins should pursue a potential trade deal for the Carolina Hurricanes Alexander Nikishin. Conor looks at both the pros and cons of trading for Nikishin, but ultimately settles on if the Bruins can pull off a deal for a young proven player like Nikishin that not only helps the Bruins right now but can help the Bruins as part of a core group in the future he would do it. He also discusses what a potential role could look like for James Hagens next season and if he could be a top 6 regular on this Bruins team.
