Confirmed Trade: [BOS/FLA] Frank Vatrano for 2018 3rd

[BruinsBtn]

Great pickup. A lot of teams are going to be kicking themselves for not beating this offer.

He's going to be a 20-goal guy. Unreal, all-world shot and he can fly. In the right situation he could be a really, really good scorer.


Shame he was hurt so much last year when he had a real shot in Boston. HF has written him off and most Boston fans too but it's a mistake.

 

[TorontLoL 67]

Maroon to Boston incoming

Dear god I hope not.

 

[Charlie Conway]

What is the jersey scheme if Boston has 2 R. Nash's?

Can't even do R or Ri.

Gotta be Ric. Nash and Ril. Nash.

Unless one gets the R. But It'd mather see the "Ric. Nash." Woooooo.

 

[Critical13]

Little bit surprised, I like Vatrano.

 

[Skelen]

Loved Frankie while he was here, but he has been lackluster this year. Wish him the best in FLA. Happy with the return.

 

[Matt24]

Good move for both sides. Likely a domino move for the Bruins and Vatrano's definitely worth a flyer for a 3rd.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

well, Florida has good luck with young Boston forwards that fell out of favor (Reilly Smith)...hope it continues for Vatrano

Sounds like Brandon Pirri

 

[paulhiggins]

Soon to be Bjugstad's replacement.

At that point just write full blown Rick Nash on the back haha

 

[and 99 others]

What is the jersey scheme if Boston has 2 R. Nash's?

They go to second initial:

Ri. Nash and Ri. Nash

 

[BonMorrison]

They go to second initial:

Ri. Nash and Ri. Nash

-thinking emoji-

 

[ManofSteel55]

Christ Chiarelli, can't cough up a 3rd for Vatrano? Lord knows you're gonna waste that pick anyway.

 

[Pay Carl]

Soon to be Bjugstad's replacement.

hasn't he been playing well on the top line the past couple weeks?

 

[Charlie Conway]

Put 'em on the same line. Time to Ric and Ril.

 

[AvatarAang]

They go to second initial:

Ri. Nash and Ri. Nash

Wow do you have any ounce of intelligence?

Obviously they would just take turns wearing the same sweater, swapping at the end of each shift.

 

[Soundgarden]

What is the jersey scheme if Boston has 2 R. Nash's?

Probably Rick Nash and Nash, one team(Carolina?) didn't have the initials for either the Sutters or Staals.

 

[JP Nolan]

What is the jersey scheme if Boston has 2 R. Nash's?

Probably different numbers.....I bet.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Frank the tank.

 

[Blowfish]

Maroon to Boston incoming

No turtles wanted.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

He was good last year
Maybe a change like this will do him good

 

[flapanthersfan]

No.

 

[Langdon Alger]

I said a change will do you good.

 

[Tim Vezina Thomas]

Its a fair deal. Vatrano was a victim of numbers here and I'll be rooting for him.

I think he can put it together and become an NHL player.

 

[bob27]

Vatrano is another of those guys who was just in the wrong place at the right time. Don't think he had much of a future in Boston, but a good reclamation project pickup for the Panthers.
