A few observations:
1. Sergachev could end up being a career 5/6 and it looks like TB would still win the trade. Drouin is soft, lazy and really nothing special.
2.When does Carey go all “Patrick Roy” and demand a trade?
3. Regarding Price....maybe moving him would be the best way to jump start the rebuild. (No idea who they have in their pipeline though). Philly is typically looking to make deals and are perennially looking for a goaltender. Ghost for Price as the basis for a deal?
4. I’d want the B’s to get Kane, Simmonds and literally 3-4 dozen other wingers in the league over Pacioretty. He’s a one trick pony....he can score a little bit from 20-30 feet from the goal. Creates nothing, is lazy, and isn’t tough.
5. I don’t believe in peaking too soon and am truly excited about the next 4-5 months and beyond. Obviously they aren’t going to keep this pace up, but they are much, much better than any of us thought. (And I was among the most optimistic entering the season)
