GDT: 2020 NHL Free Agent Frenzy III

[bbfan419]

Something has to be up... way too fishy.
Donnie delaying
AP delaying
Hall delaying

If the Bruins wanted Dadonov, Hoffman or Smith, it would have been done by now. seriously.
And to walk away from Krug 1LD like that.... plus other teams signing other D....

Agree and Dom said Dadonov would be the one of the first UFA signed, he was not, so something may have changed, they very well could be trying to get both Hall and AP, while at the same time dealing away Rask and the dead weights Moore, Ritchie, Lindholm etc.

Not this time. Seguin. Hamilton. Kessel. Smith. Krug. Now, we'll hear about DeBrusk and his 'issues' if he is moved. Hell, I remember being a kid with a Juneau jersey being sold he was a selfish player who wanted too much money.

Happy for you Krug. Truly. I didn't want him back at that money so I'm pumped he got paid somewhere.

I mean they were probably right about Joey

 

[Dr Quincy]

Yeah, that doesn’t make sense. Just because it was bested (by an extra year) doesn’t make it not competitive. With your logic:

500M for 10 years

500M for 11 years

So the 11 year offer is the only competitive offer?

By your logic the Leafs were competitive with the Bruins in 2019.

Who would you rather have been, the B's or the competitive Leafs?

Sign Hall, trade DeBrusk for Hanifin. Trade Bjork for Virtanen. Trade Ritchie and Moore for picks. Sign Martin. Sign Anthanasiou. Sign Chara.

Marchand — Bergeron — Pastrnak
Hall — Krejci — Virtanen
Athanasiou — Coyle — Kase
Frederic — Kuraly — Wagner
Senyshyn
Martin

Hanifin — McAvoy
Grzelcyk — Carlo
Lauzon — Clifton
Zboril
Chara
Miller will not be an option.

Rask
Halak

probably doesn’t work cap wise. I’ll make it work in NHL 21 lmao

Have I got a job for YOU!!

 

[BTO]

From Pagnotta, it sounds like Boston's first priority is Hall, followed by Craig Smith.

If they get Hall, they probably ship out Debrusk for defensive help.

I would bet Calgary would take debrusk for Hannifin. Then flip Gaudreau to Columbus or NJ to get a defenseman back.

"Hall, followed by Craig Smith". May as well be Hall, followed by me. If they don't get Hall, or Toffoli, or something, they may as well blow up.

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Yeah but I would rather Kuraly-Frederic-Wagner than have Ritchie lumbering around out there

Ritchie, Frederic, and Kuraly would be an interesting 4th line. Wagner contributes very little we can't replace easily. That would be a tough, physical, and still talented 4th line.

 

[wintersej]

The fact that some people are already trying to paint Torey Krug...TOREY KRUG..as some terrible guy? Laughable

Wait I missed this. Who is doing this?

Not a terrible guy but he should have kept things to himself and also not have the producer of spittin chicklets out there trying to smear the Bruins.

Way to completely ignore the point. You said something stupid. We all do it. Just own it and move on.

Probably getting ahead of it before the team did it to him first.

 

[Dr Hook]

I don't care for Wags that much but he skates a lot better than Ritchie does. If they can get Nick to put the time in with Kim Brandvold and get another gear to his game it would be good and he would actually be a pretty useful player out there.

Come the f*** on. He was asked a question an answered it truthfully. The Bruins didn’t make him a new offer in a year. If that’s upsetting, be mad at the Bruins, not Torey for telling what they did (or didn’t do)

 

[Dr Quincy]

Why?

Can you refresh my memory if you said the same thing about the Behind the B's episodes focused on the Seguin trade? I mean, surely you would say that the B's should've kept things to themselves and not tried to smear Seguin, right?

If Smith is plan B I am worried again.

 

[The don godfather]

Keep calm and Don

 

[Deuce17]

Some bad press

Personally I call this smart and good press. Just imo

 

[The National]

Both were unprofessional.

I’m glad he did.

the best part about leaving a job is dumping all over it on the way out. Cant take that opportunity away

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

If Smith is plan B I am worried again.

Going from Hall to Smith is like promising your kid you’re taking them to Disney World and then ending up in New Hampshire at Story Land. Both a lot of fun as a kid, but night and day.

I hated what they did to Seguin on the show.

I don't like it when the team smears a player and I don't like it when a player smears a team.

Be the professionals you claim to be. Somethings should remain private

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Hannifin has been butkiss since he has entered the league . He went top 5 and has shown only bust material.

Miller as good as Hanifin.

You're really coming in from left field today.

 

[The don godfather]

Miller as good as Hanifin.

You're really come in from left field today.

I'll only take hannifin for debrusk if we get hall ..or else forget it.
