Larry’s 2010 Cup Prediction: The Boston Bruins

Things are finally going right in Boston. With current Vezina Trophy Winner Tim Thomas, and Norris Trophy winner Zdeno Chara, I’m picking Boston to take home the Stanley Cup in 2010. They also have the 2009 Jack Adams winner in Claude Julien who was given a three year extension this off season. It appears that they’re going to lose Phil Kessel lead their team in goal scoring, but I expect him to be traded before he signs an offer sheet.

I truly am starting to believe that Savard can make anyone score, which is why the potential loss of Kessel doesn’t concern me. With little cap space left ($1.8 million according to NhlNumers.com), I also don’t expect them to make many additions. What I would like to see though is the addition of a stay at home defensemen for them.
