(sorry for no update on the 4 WBL teams merging... I made some mistakes regarding expansion franchises and 1980 is a pretty stable year where i can focus on managing my team and not worry about getting the league setup correctly)

Boston Bruins Announce New GM
The Boston Bruins are looking for someone to clean up the mess made by it's last GM. That man is Cam Neely. The Bruins are coming off a 71-91 season. However they did make the playoffs but with recent rule changes there are 8 teams per conference making the playoffs. To put it in retrospect only 2 teams in the Prince Of Wales conference had worst records. The Canadiens and the Sabres. Cam Neely has a vision of a team with great speed on the basepaths. Good pitching and lots of contact hitting. He is not a big power equals runs type guy like most teams in the league. Will this new GM's strategy pay off? We will have to see in the upcoming season. Should be interesting none the less.
