Confirmed Trade: [CHI/BOS] Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno (UFA rights) for Ian Mitchell and Alec Regula

[Bcap88]

Debrusk?

No trade protection

Has previously requested a trade from Boston

Clears up 4 mil

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Hope it's a big expande trade. Then Sweeney has the money to keep Bertuzzi.

 

[Rob Brown]

'Benefit the Blackhawks' makes it seem like it's a more notable player than not.

Interested to see if it's around Ullmark since the Bruins seem to be looking to move one of the goalies.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Forbort and Reilly ?

Looks like the Hawks need d for next season

 

[wintersej]

Carlo seems like a REACH for inclusion on that list. If they are moving Carlo, why not to Calgary or WPG for actual assets.

DeBrusk and Reilly to CHI for Tampa's 1st?

Just from a quick glance the three most likely Bruins are DeBrusk, Gryz, and Reilly, Hall has trade protection and I doubt he's waiving for Chicago

 

[Djp]

Probably just Forbort/Reilly attached a 3rd or a prospect for future consideration

they will cost a 2nd to unload
Boston could use chicsgo as a pass thru on Hall.

DeBrusk and Reilly to CHI for Tampa's 1st?

No thanks

 

[ponder719]

Yes. Clear space so the Flyers can trade you Krug at 50% retained. Make Pasta happy; you know you want to.

 

[wintersej]

Gotta be Mike Rielly+3rd for future considerations. Maybe a prospect instead of the 3rd since Boston doesn’t have a 2nd til 2026 or a 1st til 2025.

It won't be Rielly, he is a stupid cheap buyout.

DeBrusk and Reilly to CHI for Tampa's 1st?

That is horrible for Hawks

 

[StickShift]

I am really interested to see what the price is for Boston to dump salary.

I have a theory that for teams where it would be a “nice to have” to unload salary—ie, maybe they want to free up salary for some acquisitions—the price isn’t that extreme.

But for teams where unloading salary is a “need to have” for them to operate—ie, they have no reasonable path to being cap compliant—the price is going to have them bent over a barrel.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

No thanks

Really? DeBrusk is very good. He'd be a hell of a winger for Bedard. Reilly can play, too. He was just a victim of Boston's cap situation.

 

[BruinLVGA]

Hall with Lysell attatched?

Carlo?

Slow down on what you are smoking, boys.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

DeBrusk is easily worth that pick by himself. 25 and 27 goals in the last two years.

 

[High five Tom]

Probably Forbort and Reilly for #1 pick.

 

[ryan callahan]

Grzelcyk + Reilly for future considerations. Who says no? Chicago needs PP guys.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

Only ones you can call a "cap dump" would be Forbort and Reilly.

 

[kevistar]

Maybe they want Hall to guarantee another 1st overall next year

 

[PAZ]

Grzelcyk + Reilly for future considerations. Who says no? Chicago needs PP guys.

Chicago.

Cap space is still a premium asset - they'd be stupid to take on space while getting nothing in return unless it's a very good asset. Neither Grzelyck or Rielly are that.

DeBrusk is super interesting. He is happy with Cassidy gone. But he is a UFA next summer. Are the Bruins gonna bring him back? 4 million bucks for a guy that has 37 goals in his last 82 games is some really good value right now. They aren't going to get better value for 4 million bucks, but if they don't want to bring him back long term (or don't like his price to)...

Have no interest in trading a first for him

 

[Forge]

In a vacuum, I agree ...but that's sometimes harder to do when teams know you have to move money.

Look at Bjorkstrand last year.

Yikes. I don't think you know enough about Gryz.

 

[The don godfather]

Hopefully its Reilly.
