Proposal: All Bruins Rumours/Proposals 2020 IX

[Bodit9]

We haven't discussed Vincent Trocheck's name a lot, and he makes sense on a lot of fronts.

1) He averages 55 points, 160 hits and 60 takeaways per 82. The point average is better than Kreider and Palmieri. The hits are better than Palmieri and the takeaways are better than both. He also averages 39 ES points, which is two more than Kreider and 6 more than Palms. His career high is a 31 goal, 75 point season in 2018.

2) He is 26 years old and is signed for two more years after this one, at a cap hit of $4.75, which is real good value.

3) He's a right shot who can play wing or center, which means he could ride shotgun for Krejci this year and if they decide to move Krejci this summer, he could help Studnicka with defensive draws and responsibilities. They'd essentially have two centers on the ice.

4) He isn't big, but he's a pretty gritty guy who's not afraid of contact and is terrific at creating turnovers with hits and steals.

Last but not least, Florida fans really aren't happy with him, which is confusing since he's right on his career averages for points. I saw someone say he gives the puck away a lot but again, he's right on his average for giveaways. He's also shooting way under his career average so all in all he could be a sneaky good buy low candidate.

Trocheck has been very noticeable to me every time they play the Bruins. Could play 2RW & give some insurance at center if a C gets injured. Interesting nane for sure.

He's going to be 35 when his deal expires, so that means the 35+ rules will apply. I'd guess he gets a 2 year deal, no raise, maybe a slight paycut.

hes getting a substantial paycut if he wants to comeback

I hate this waiting game, something needs to start to happen.

Who do you keep then Gryzelcyk or Krug?

I would bet on them re-signing Krug, and the issue with him you'd lose him for free this summer.

Grzelcyk could be a part of fixing a 5 year issue.

Florida fans seem to hate Trocheck...Yes, I know there are only a half dozen of them, but they don't speak highly of him

I don't see both happening.
A Grizz trade could without question fix a 5 year issue, but If that were to happen, I don't see them being able to sign Krug in the off-season. As long as that fix was with someone who had term, which should be a no-brainer, but ......

It comes in handy that we hate Heinen. Seems like hate-value is equal. So who is telling Don that we figured it out?

The Panthers are looking for a top 4 defenseman and that's where Trochek name first surfaced. As of today their a playoff team, so I don't think they'll be dealing for futures.

Exactly. Vinnie Trochek aint going anywhere....

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Yep. They cant get rid of him fast enough. If people think some of us are hard on Heinen go look at the trade board and Panthers board and see what they think of Trocheck.

Good to see Pageau and bruins linked. Not surprised.

 

[Bodit9]

1st, Backes, Heinen for Wood.
Gryz for Trocheck. Hang on to Moore for depth. Able to re-sign Krug.

 

[Mione134]

Say yes Donny quick before they change their minds

 

[Johnny4778]

Remember the power play before Krug got here?

Yeah, that's why I keep him

Pasta maybe added a little value there too?

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

Palmieri and Wood for Backes, Heinen, Vaak, another prospect, and 2020 1st. NJ takes all of Backes. Thoughts? Maybe Frederic or Seny as the other prospect.

Think NJ wants an add there for Wood, maybe add Debrusk and McAvoy to make it fair

Listening to Ottawa radio today and they seem to think Pageau can be had for a second. Im a little confused by it, but hey if thats all it takes, he won't last long once the Sens decide they can't come to an agreement with him.

 

[goalieman40]

with the Devils having three 1sts already, could maybe next year's 1st be doable?

You do realize that NJ is getting the best player in that deal. Heinen is outproducing Wood. Also everyone gives Heinen shit for his performance in the playoffs but Wood has a whooping 0 points in his playoff career. I have no desire to add Wood to this team.

 

[cheg1349]

He says that like the final 48 hours isn't right around the corner

Your joking right, Debrusk and McAvoy for Woody Woodpecker?
