Not so sure I agree with that. US played well. Logan Cooley has got some wheels.Easily the best player on the ice right now in the US/SWE game.... He looks exactly like a young Pastrnak, yeah I said it.

First period and a half he was imo.Not so sure I agree with that. US played well. Logan Cooley has got some wheels.
Agree 100%I don’t expect the Pasta deal until they actually know the Cap and the owners repayment
DeBrusk dealt I put very low - makes no sense to me. Why ? He plays both wings and both special teams well
Carlo and Lindholm have looked good to great together - starting to gel. Huge pair that can skate and defend
Together they make less than Karlsson
The Bruins fans who live in the Fuji Islsnds are just getting the news Carlo & Frederic have been playing well
Fabian Lysell hopefully won’t be needed till next year looks legit - still rough around the edges but skills high end and is a keeper
Pastrnak, DeBrusk, Zacha, Lysell all should be here long term and worthy of 4 of those top 6 spots whether there is room (Marchand, Bergeron, Hall, Krejci) or not
This is shaping ip as a 20+ year run from 2007-8 of competitive teams
I was thinking of him as well for a bottom 6 forward.Does anyone know anything about Tanner Jeannot in Nashville?
Put up 24 goals 41 pts last year but seems to be struggling. Playing 15 mins a night but only 6 pts.
Can thrown down, lotta hits, even took on Reaves this year.
I'm looking for some forechecking psychos for bottom 6 to compete with Greer.
The key is both Grizz-Carlo and Lindholm-Carlo work. Grizz-McAvoy always works. Gives you great flexibility.I think our defense is doing pretty well. Lindholm-Carlo has improved dramatically and that pair is game changer because it lets both Lindholm and McAvoy play in different pairs.

I feel like I am missing something. To me it looks like a savings of $6,081. If you did that 100 times, you would have $608,100 to play with. Am I just dense and not getting it?At the risk of sounding full of myself, yes.
This management is going to go for it. When? They obviously have to make the numbers work. My guess is that they have a target number in mind and much like they fooled everyone coming out of LTIR had things figured out to the penny, (I think I called it masterfully done?) I think they know exactly how to get there and these Smith moves we'll see are just part of the process to get there.
It may not seem like a lot, and it really isn't, but big picture. This is hat happened to the Bruins cap in 24 hours. First is before Smith was sent down, second is after recall.

Who do you see as the weak link in the Bruins' top 6?Need a top 6 forward and solid physical D...Horvat and Schenn
Yes it would but wo is gonna take these guys?I think we could upgrade both, but that means moving someone out, would be nice to get rid of Reilly and Smith.
Deadline space is the important column. It's almost 30 grand. And it adds up slow, but if they have a plan and a target and know what they need then it doesn't really matter.I feel like I am missing something. To me it looks like a savings of $6,081.

Have to hope by the TDL some team needs a vet for depth, Smith could be moved in the last year of his deal.Yes it would but wo is gonna take these guys?
I knew you would have a good explanation. Thanks for sharing your insight. Very helpful in understanding the value of the moves.Deadline space is the important column. It's almost 30 grand. And it adds up slow, but if they have a plan and a target and know what they need then it doesn't really matter.
Debrusk or Zacha could be on the 3rd lineWho do you see as the weak link in the Bruins' top 6?
Hopefully with Hampus, that will keep the minutes of the bottom 4 down, and if we are lucky that will help with any weaknesses getting exposed and also reduce injuriesI don`t have any massive issues with the D but always worry Grizz will get hurt prior to playoffs and would like someone who brings a nasty side to them, doesn`t mean they have to drop the mitts every game, just a guy who makes life miserable for opponents, I haven`t a clue who that might be but perhaps someone on here can think of someone
Do you know or able to share, would said player fall into toughness or scoring category?Deadline space is the important column. It's almost 30 grand. And it adds up slow, but if they have a plan and a target and know what they need then it doesn't really matter.
Don't know. Only know the original plan was an upgrade to Greer with Smith moved. And I say that with all due respect to those calling for a d-man. But thems the factsDo you know or able to share, would said player fall into toughness or scoring category?
I’ll keep pounding the table for this one. 3rd line RW with some pop. Sheary, Nyqvist are good and will be affordable at the deadline.
Also would look at brining back Mojo to play with Coyle. His cap hit would be an easy move or so to fit and we know the chemistry is there.
Why would we ever want to tinker with any of these guys? Best top 6 in the NHL and prob the best 7-9 in Reilly, JZ and Stralman.I think our defense is doing pretty well. Lindholm-Carlo has improved dramatically and that pair is game changer because it lets both Lindholm and McAvoy play in different pairs.

Hey now, that's my second line sim LW you are talking about!Sheary has terrible playoff numbers, less than 10 goals per 82 games. The Bruins are the best team in the league, trade for someone that can make an impact on the playoffs. Toews or bust.

12th forward. I don’t think they want to go with Greer any higher than 13th FYou have to make a lot of cap space to fit Nyqvist in, and I don't think he is good enough to warrant paying Washington a high pick to take Reily and Smith while giving you Nyqvist.
In terms of Sheary, I guess he is an upgrade on the 13th forward, and a decent depth piece, but I think Frederick is a better player at this point,
I hope he gives you continued success from Washington. Sweeney wouldn’t be doing himself any favors if Sheary was his big pickup on Bergeron and Krejci’s last run lol.Why would we ever want to tinker with any of these guys? Best top 6 in the NHL and prob the best 7-9 in Reilly, JZ and Stralman.
