Player Discussion Rick Nash

[cobrak]

Nash is a damn good player. Getting out of that toxic dump a/k/a the Rangers should give him a real boost.

Holden looked giddy in his 1st interview, hopefully Nash feels the same

 

[Troublesome 85]

People wanted another banger big forward well here is Nash.

Nash will end all the Leafs dreams and feed on their miserable fans tears.

 

[UConn126]

Is there any confirmation he's playing tonight?

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Welcome to Boston, you are going to tear it up

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Let's do this Rick!

Good omen: Updated the Bruins lineup in NHL 18 and sniped one with Nash from Krejci on his first shot:

He is the best scorer we now have. Even at a rental, I love this.

Maybe if we went back in time but he's not our best scorer right now. That's a slap in the face to Marchand.

Against the Habs too! Super sweet!

 

[ProdigalFan]

Nash has great hands around the net. Remember when the Bruins were looking for guys with "finish"? Krejci should love this.

bruins twitter account said he should be good to go tonight

I think Krejci or Heinen might take Spooner's spot. Or maybe they'll juggle their PP setup more radically.

Heinen would be my bet. He looked great in spooner's role earlier this season.

Nash is gonna benefit a lot from playing here. He won't have to be the guy on offense here. Obviously I'd love to see him light it up, but its a major win for the Bruins if he can be their 5th or 6th best forward.

I've posted some of these around the boards earlier, but with better linemates/less pressure and a MUCH better coach, I think he will look a lot more like his old self.

Nash finishes the year with 30 goals.

 

[ranold26]

Nash is at the rink, per Joe Yerdon.

Good, because I don't think they had an extra F with the club

Definitely in the top 4 or 5.

 

[22Brad Park]

We're gonna see the real Rick Nash folks.He has to be pumped knowing he is getting another crack at Lord Stanley .Wlcm To Boston Rick.

He already spoke to media in Buffalo.Said he is glad it's Boston.

 

[Mathews28]

Bruins just got Nashty.

 

[Gargyn]

Great addition. Can’t fault Sweeney for not making a statement trade. I like it.

Yep. Don't listen to the crap on the main boards. He's always been underrated on HF.

 

[TCL40]

I like but don’t love this trade.

Nash, in style, seems like a better fit at wing than Spooner.

I do think it shows Sweeney recognized where the team’s biggest offensive hole was and he took steps to fill it-whether or not it was the right move will be seen.

He may have some Mark Rechi in him !!
