Contract Negotiations Loom Large as Bruins Prepare to Reload for Another Stanley Cup RunAfter a disappointing end to their season, the Bruins offseason will be an interesting one for sure.

The team will need to decide once again how to juggle Tim Thomas and Tuukka Rask in net, along with many other players' contract situations that will need to be addressed before the B's take the ice again next season.

The future of the team's fourth line, where Tyler Seguin will play and the possibility of adding a big-name free agent along the lines of Zach Parise are all questions that the team will likely consider when figuring out how to best return to their Stanley Cup-winning ways.

NESN.com's Doug Flynn conducted a live Twitter chat on Friday afternoon to answer questions about what challenges await Peter Chiarelli, Cam Neely and the rest of the B's organization.

Read the transcript of the chat below to see how Doug thinks Boston will address some team needs over the next few months.
