Word is they want to lock up Thorton also.
I like that they have gone after some hard nosed "blue collar" guys.
The old Bruins teams (that were good), were always made up off a bunch of blue collar type players and 1 maybe 2 "stars" but they worked there butt off as a team and always over performed.
That and what really hurts thorton is the lack of muscle, everyone takes runs at him, then he defends himself, gets in a fight and gets tossed. Now looks like the Bruins will have some people to take the heat off him or atleast hit back for him.
