This. And I think it would be a good move. Not solely for on ice performance (Chara isn't what he was), but two years of Chara would pay a lot of dividends on the culture/leadership side of things. He would also be a great mentor for guys like Nurse, Klefbom, and Marincin.
It would take a bit, but I don't think it would be a huge cost given the cap space it frees up for Boston (or replacing his salary with a couple players and a smaller savings).
