Boston is the level to reach in terms of asset management, winning, and culture.

Imagine if they had drafted Barzal, Connor and Chabot instead of Zboril, Debrusk and Senyshyn in the 2015 draft with their 3 first round picks.
I like this trade for the Bruins, Ritichie will break out offensively there. He was always projected with a Lucic type ceiling and he doesn't come with a $6 million contract. He's going to thrive in Boston.
Heinen is nothing, he is a filler.
