Neely Moves Up In Front Office

Beloved former Bruin Cam Neely was named President of the Bruins at a press conference Wednesday afternoon to become the first to hold the title since Harry Sinden departed the post in 2006.

The move essentially makes Neely the boss of GM Peter Chiarelli---a GM who has some salary cap maneuvering to do in order to ice the best possible team this fall (defensemen Mark Stuart and Johnny Boychuk and forward Mark Recchi remain offseason priorities despite limited cap room).
