In recent games, it has been common to see Martin St. Louis use four forwards on the power play, a pretty clear indication that the defensive rebound is lacking. In fact, it has been lacking for a few years now, especially on the left side.
Jimmy Murphy, who covers Bruins activities for Boston Hockey Now, suggests that Kent Hughes should possibly look into the services of St. Louis Blues defenseman Torey Krug.
The former Bruins man would be the ideal candidate according to Murphy to find solutions to the Habs' problems on the power play, and his presence could restore a luster that the Habs had lost since the departure of a certain Andrei Markov.
