GDT: 2020 NHL Free Agent Frenzy IV

[Deuce17]

That might be the last team he'd go to. No offense, no goaltending.

You mean the last of the 4 he’s considering after already eliminating some 21 right?

 

[bruins19]

Yeah, check out Bergeron and Marchand’s stats. Experience is a big factor. Seems like you’re really weighing legs too heavily. I’ll give I might be giving experience a bit on my side...but not by much.

I wouldn’t give Hoffman a 6 year deal...but a 2-3 year deal on the twilight of his prime is fine.

As was said a couple posts above...we don’t even need 40...30 on line 2 would be large. I’d put up with a **** person in Bergy’s lockeroom for 30 next to Krejci.

**** person and 30 goals?
Based on reputation, we have a winner: “Mr. Kessel to the service desk, please. Mr. Kessel, Mr. Phil Kessel, call on line 1...”

There is no quit in you, I love it, Keep banging that drum. But when you don't say Book It it doesn't
carry much weight.

I THINK WE MAY NEED TO START A "BOOK IT" THREAD.

Just so it doesn't get overused in every other thread.

I think we should research where the "book it" trend started. I am personally invested in this.

 

[JOKER 192]

Damn, thought you knew. That was a big guy you were after this week.

Like I was saying earlier , you can't break away for dinner these days . When you get back there is no catching up anymore. Then of course there is a giant void like now.

I missed that one. I've been on this guy for a while.

Now I realize he's not oozing skill but he brings an element that is priceless in the PO's as they are played these days. Donny sleeping at the wheel again.

Do tell.

I had 3 glasses of wine. I'm in a very serene place

Well then I'm way ahead of you but size matters. At least that's what I hear.

 

[TheReal13Linseman]

Hey there bro, you picked a difficult time to try to go Cold Turkey from this place.... Now, the clock has to be reset and you start all over. HFBA (HOCKEY'S FUTURE BOARDS ANONYMOUS)

He’ll be back. The Lunatic Fringe is the crystal meth of HF Boards. As David Gilmour said, “There’s no way out of here; when you come in you’re in for good...”

 

[Jorah Marshmont]

Well now I’m pissed off at the deal. That’s another $2M/yr that likely won’t be in the lineup. Between him and Moore, that’s damn near $5M for 7/8 defencemen.

Absolutely f***ing disgusting cap management.

Just wait until you hear him discuss the new deal. "If we were playing right now, I wouldn't be cleared. But come puck drop, I definitely will be. I have no doubt in my mind I will be 100 percent by then."

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

So roughly $11M... DeBrusk, Grzelcyk maybe Chara.

The changes we were promised are gonna amount to Smith in and Krug out. IE: The roster is the same but worse.

Gonna have to get creative. Gonna have to become creative. Kase, Moore and DeBrusk

 

[Memokerobi]

Nhl Network reporting Bruins fans are really unhappy with management because they pulled Krug’s offer.

The first part is true but that’s not the reason

Sad reality is setting in. Not as much Cap space as it seemed.

That would really, really suck.

Ya, unless they have an Ace up their sleeve this may be the worst FA ever.

Eh many teams do a lot with limited cap space. Its just a matter of being willing and creative. If they want, they can definitely create some space starting by moving Moore. Also, signing Kevan Miller to a $1/1.25m on the first day of FA doesn't help

I am so with you on this. As a matter of fact I posted something to this effect earlier. The problem is I have zero faith in this management team to pull it off. I hope I'm wrong .

 

[bruinmann77]

The bruins FO is a total. joke but its starts from the top dog JJ. If Don fails to get a legit winger like hall and loses Krug with only signing Smith this is another failed off season on the FO. I have also read that There been no talk with AP camp.

 

[chrisab123]

Ya, unless they have an Ace up their sleeve this may the worst FA ever.

Last few years were pretty bad. But f***ing Kevan might be the worst.

If I live a thousand years I'll never understand how that is the 1st move. That's the last move you f***ing dummies.

 

[GloveSave1]

For God’s sake DS...get Hoffman. Wake up his agent.

 

[bruinmann77]

It really sicking to see this team fail to sign a legit winger wow why to say to the fan base we add nothing but we know you still come.

 

[bruinmann77]

DS really needs to be lets go and i staring to think Neely too but i have a feeling this issues start higher up the ladder

 

[JOKER 192]

For God’s sake DS...get Hoffman. Wake up his agent.

Pretty sure his agent is awake. It's DS that is sleeping.

Hahaha it is beyond maddening. We have 3-4 glaring holes and Donny can’t help himself and jumps all over the depth D first and a beyond silly one at that. I mean you can’t make this up. So done with this slug

Kase, Moore, Ritchie out. Chara not signed. Hoffman in. Gryz bridge deal.
