As Chara grabbed a basketball and spinning a few layups, general manager Peter Chiarelli surveyed the scene with fear. “I'm sitting there going, F---, Zee, don't twist your ankle,” he says.

Showing former general manager Peter Chiarelli the door didn't hurt though. With all due respect, he built the Bruins' 2011 championship team that fell just short of repeating in 2013. But handing out lucrative contracts like candy to Krejci, Bergeron, Chara and Dennis Seidenberg, who's now with the NewÃâà...

Last offseason, I ranked every general manager. People thought Peter Chiarelli, at 17, was ranked too low. Perhaps now people will think he was ranked too high. Yes, Chiarelli won a Stanley Cup.

The idea that this club is showcasing an injured defenceman who's on a sweetheart contract for the next five years should get the hairs on the back of your neck to stand up.

For just under 10 minutes, Edmonton Oilers general manager Peter Chiarelli held court with the media about his team's performance, its plans for the looming NHL trade deadline and what to expect over the final quarter of the 2017-18 season. He took pains not to reveal too much. Mostly he succeeded.

The Boston Bruins have had some bad luck over the past few years, trading away key pieces. But what if Peter Chiarelli, GM from 2006-2015, was never in that position?
