At least he didn't spend any assets on Chiarot. I didn't love their UFA spending spree at the time, but now I think it's totally fine given how disciplined they are being with their other assets

I am not trying to criticize Yzerman here, but I find it hilarious that literally every thing he does, generates "Yzerman is a genius" posts.
The bolded is probably true, but I think BOS has plenty of potential to fall down to the bubble, especially if they go deep this year and Bergeron/Krejci hang them up.
