PREDICTION
The Bruins have the best roster in the division and one of the top goalies in the league in Tuukka Rask, However, Rask must shoulder a majority of the games because unproven Niklas Svedberg is now the backup. The Bruins lost Iginla for nothing, and that will be missed, but they still have one of the deepest teams in all areas of the game, forward, defense and goaltending. With Rask and Patrice Bergeron collecting hardware last season, the Bruins still have top end talent and will be among the favorites for the Stanley Cup.
