“I think that it speaks to what’s now become sort of the Boston model. People do want to copy what you’re doing because of the success we’re seeing. We didn’t win this year, (but) we got to the Final the year before — these are enviable positions to be in.”

“It’s a leadership team and Cam (Neely) leads and is part of it Starting with Charlie (Jacobs), through Peter (Chiarelli), through Claude (Julien) and Cam. I think they have met and exceeded our expectations, my expectations at least. I think we’ve done a terrific job to create a winning institution. I think we have delivered on what we promised.”

-Jeremy Jacobs, owner of the Boston Bruins on the reports of assistant GM Jim Benning being named GM of the Vancouver Canucks. More from Mike Cole of NESN.
