The irony is that I love this roster. As much as Cronin has decimated last year's roster and abandoned his tried and true approach to building a competitive team, there's potential here for a contender, just not in 2024-25. I'm actually more interested in who from this bunch will even still be on the roster for 2025-26 than in the outcome of next season. My best guess is that we finish 3rd or 4th in the Big 10 and end up a bubble team by March. We're going to struggle against more experienced, more cohesive teams, and Cronin's going to blow a gasket repeatedly when his newfangled roster, comprised largely of first-year Bruins, doesn't do what he expects.
If everyone stays, we should be very good in 2025-26. Next season, not so much.
