Let's just hope he starts going by Doug.
The picks thus far:
Still, the Bruins get to pick. Make the jump and help them out. Who should the B's take? Make your case.
Unfortunately for our friend Ryan Murphy, the Bruins have little need for a defenseman who may have defensive issues. That means that Murphy gets to sit in the stands for bit longer and sweat for awhile longer. Looking at Boston's depth at the blueline, they may need some love, but they don't need Ryan Murphy.
More likely, yet again, is that the Bruins go for one of the top rated forwards still available, such as Sven "Steven" Bartschi. While Bartschi is a bit on the small side, the Bruins have never had an issue drafting small forwards. Whomever the Bruins pick is going to have a tough time cracking the lineup, with some amazing depth in the forward ranks for an organization that consistently makes the playoffs.
The leanings I have here would be toward someone like Bartschi, Zach Phillips, or if they are feeling particularly giddy that day, a big defenseman like Duncan Siemens. However, as explained ad neaseum, the talent level of anyone in the first round is so difficult to distinguish, the B's could take anyone. To pick is to go all Hockey Buzz and just throw darts at the wall.
Unfortunately for you, the task falls on your shoulders.
