Value of: Brady Tkachuk to Bruins

[McDuffz88]

Idk how this thread is still alive. There's 0 chance he's getting traded to the Bruins. They would be outbid by 20 teams half of which are playoff teams.

lol @ that comparison. Players fake injuries in playoffs to avoid playing against Tkachuk. Miere is okay. Brady Tkachuk brings debatably the best intangibles in the game

No play has ever faked an injury in the NHL playoffs to avoid playing against Tkachuk because Tkachuk has never made the playoffs. Tkachuk's intangibles have yet to lead to anything remotely resembling success.

That's comparable to what Jack Eichel got. There's a limit to what trades go for in the salary cap era (better players get more money so their surplus value is limited and generally all in the same range)

Yes, but Jack Eichel was also somewhat of an injury risk.

Swayman Carlo Poitras Frederic + 2x1st for Brady and Korpisalo

Lol all that for Brady Tkachuk ?

Lol all that for Brady Tkachuk ?

And they'd have to take on the large korpisalo cap dump.

Swayman+1st for Brady+Korpisalo is probably reasonable, if not an overpay by boston

Just spent a few minutes looking over your posts

You want garbage

You got banned 3 years ago and this is your first post (it wasn’t me who banned you)

Bud this is nowhere close to my first post in three years so you’re making stuff up. I also wasn’t banned I just didn’t use the app for a while. Still making stuff up……

That’s the conversation on the HF text group former guys who left - we were discussing your shot at me and this was mentioned. Apologies- I’ll let the guys know you are doing well

Have to feel bad for Ottawa fans. I heard Brady wants out, maybe? If that’s the case, as much as you don’t want to trade him at some point you’ll have to and the longer you wait (within his current contract) the less value you’ll get.

They’re like the Dallas Cowboys in that “this is their year!”

Everyone knows who the Dallas Cowboys of the NHL are.

Where did you hear this bullshit? Your vivid wet dream?

What a poor comparison. The Cowboys have made the playoffs like 7 years in a row and have won 1 playoff game. This is their year refers to winning the Superbowl.

The Sens haven't made the playoffs since 2017.

The Sens are more like the Arizona Cardinals of the NHL.

Is it true he asked out of O?

Ryan Withney spread the rumor a couple months ago. I think Brady’s dad started it off though

Even Ryan Whitney admitted that they just make up rumours.

Here's GM Steve Staios:

On Ryan Whitney’s tweet last week regarding the Senators “maybe” being willing to move Brady Tkachuk:

Ah yeah, that could not be further from the truth (chuckle).

I don’t follow on social media. I do get, our communications people alert me to things like that. There’s obviously no truth to that. Like, we’re building the team around Brady Tkachuk and the type of person, the type of player and the type of leader that he is. He means everything to the organization. And he brings it every night along with our core group of players. It’s a matter of time and a matter of nurturing this group.

When I talk about bringing in veteran players, it’s really to support this young group and to support Brady and Tim (Stützle) and the rest of the group. Claude Giroux has done a phenomenal job of that. But you can always use those guys.

We’re the fifth-youngest team in the league, you know? So say we’re three years younger than these Stanley Cup-contending types of teams, but it’s three years younger across the board. So that adds up to a lot of years and a lot of games played. Really, that’s really it. But certainly, Brady is the leader that we need in this room. He is everything as advertised, and I’m just looking to do my best to support him.

LeBrun: Senators GM Steve Staios shoots down Brady Tkachuk rumors, talks trade deadline plans

Staios' first trade deadline could involve moving Tarasenko and Chychrun, but he says Tkachuk rumors "could not be further from the truth."

Yeah I get the Sens GM denying the rumours but where did Withney admitted his own rumour was made up?

He admitted that they make up rumors during his interview with Peter Mansbridge.

Seeing as the rumor came from a single source, nothing more was heard from it, and it was over two months ago, I'm waiting for additional substantiation before I give any credence to the idea.

McAvoy for Brady and a 2nd

Enticing TBH but I doubt Boston moves McAvoy. He's probably the best Dman that's not a perennial Norris candidate.

 

[I am Canadian]

Bruins can offer quantity rather than quality pieces. Sens have enough quantity and need quality. This would only work if Brady ever requested a trade as well, and they clearly aren't at that stage.

 

[tTheVeganWoofMate]

McAvoy is a quality price
