The Bruins' goals coming into the trade deadline were to add some depth on defense and get a veteran winger with a left-handed shot who can help out the power play. Ideally, the B's wanted to do this without disrupting the core of the team. I think Peter Chiarelli has accomplished what he and his hockey ops people set out to do today.
