Bruins Add Jeannot, Betting on Grit and Goals

Boston is adding Tanner Jeannot on a five-year deal, and that tells you exactly what kind of summer the Bruins think they are having. He brings the heavy, straight-ahead game that coaches love when the playoffs start getting ugly, but the real question is how much offense comes with the sandpaper. The price tag suggests the Bruins see more than just a body on the fourth line, because no front office hands out term like that unless it believes the player can tilt a matchup.
