2012 BBKL Waiver draft discussion

[Chuck Norris]

Damn you Kule, was hoping to pick up Bourque once FA started lol....guess I should have figured it wouldn't have gotten by a Bruins fan...

Doncha love it?

As the Bruins opened training camp Sunday, Chris Bourque was skating on the team's third line with Chris Kelly and Rich Peverley, the Boston Globe reports.

Fantasy Analysis
Chris Bourque has a shot to open the season in Benoit Pouliot's old spot on the B's third line, an assignment with modest fantasy upside. Bourque, who scored 28 points in 32 games with AHL Providence during the NHL lockout) seems to be in a solid position to claim the job, which is really the Bruins' only major training camp battle to be decided at this point.

Yeah I had read about him making the 3rd line to start the year with Caron out for a couple of weeks. When he gets back though should be interesting to see what happens.

Caron has been absolutely terrible in Providence. Julien and the coaching staff have been taking in many games during lockout and I assume they are none too impressed. Lackluster, lazy play with no drive or emotion and playing like hes made of glass. Not so sure that spot will be his to get back. He needs to do some work to recover and prove his worth.

Caron is and always has been a plug.
