Often times personalities influence our opinions on people in the hockey world. Pierre McGuire is certainly a personality that draws plenty of ire from fans. Whether you find him irritating or abrasive or downright insufferable, one thing can be said about the man, he knows hockey. Today he offered his opinion regarding the Bruins options as we approach the trade deadline. He believes that the Bruins need to bolster offence and let their defence fall into place on it's own. McGuire said: I don’t know about the top four [defenseman], it’s a fair question. I think it is more pressure and get more consistent offense in the first line and insert with [Milan] Lucic and [David] Krejci, and this isn’t a knock on whomever they have tried there — whether it’s [Loui] Eriksson or Reilly Smith, whenever it be anybody, David Pastrnak — it doesn’t matter. I think they really need a veteran presence, a proven guy that can score goals in a first line situation and then the rest of the batting order kind of stabilizes itself. He may have a point. Although the Bruins defence has been an issue recently, a lack of offence has been present al year long. It has been reported that the Bruins have shown interest in Arizona Coyotes forward Antoine Vermette, Buffalo Sabres forward Chris Stewart and Vancouver Canucks winger Zack Kassian for some time. They would surely have interest in disgruntled Jets forward Evander Kane, but Kane has opted for season ending surgery, so he would not help the club immediately. Who do you think is the Bruins best option?
