Boston Bruins 2021 Training Camp

[Greek_physique]

Really hope DK has a chip on his shoulder being an UFA and he finally gets Pasta for the entire year.

IMO, as great as our top line is...if Krejci is playing at an elite level (if he can still do that) he makes this team go.

 

[DominicT]

It would not surprise me that there is an unspoken agreement between 31 GM's to not grab any players off of waiver wire.

But who knows?

 

[BruinsJoe]

Wolff can be a wild card because he's big play hard nasty old school hockey, can drop the glove, he can bring something missing on this team, he's 24...

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Wolff is my wild card but he's going to have one hell of a camp in order to knock off a vet or two. Stranger things have happened.

I'd say testing is today and then they get on the ice tomorrow for the first practice

Bruins Announce Roster And Schedule For Training Camp (nhl.com)

I wonder if spectators are allowed. They allow them for youth games and practices at that arena.

 

[Beesfan]

The guy I want to see live up to the hype he gets on this board is Carlo. Maybe Im missing something other than his great skating ability for a big kid.

He's my dark horse to be out of here before seasons end

Carlo is a very good defensemen. Great skater, good defensive awareness and good range. I think he is physical enough--he hits to separate players from the puck, not to knock them out. That's actually what Cassidy and Sweeney prefer.

There is and always will be a large contingent of Bruins fans that will loath any player over 6'2 that does not make big hits and fight. Prime examples from recent times are Blake Wheeler and Dougie Hamilton.

 

[Sevendust]

Wolff can be a wild card because he's big play hard nasty old school hockey, can drop the glove, he can bring something missing on this team, he's 24...

I dont think Wolff isnt anywhere close to being an NHL player right now. Him making the roster is wishful thinking but not realistic. I believe he needs 2-3 season in the minors before being ready.

i really wanna see him do well

 

[Mick Riddleton]

I would love Wolff to be our next McQuaid. Size and toughness on the lower pair. Miller may or may not be the same player at age 33. I do not see it, so a Wolff in the camp is good. He is a total longshot but maybe as a reserve.

 

[DominicT]

Doubt it.

Some in media I have spoken to don't even know if they'll be allowed yet

I used to love watching Wheeler play.

Glad he learned how the offside rule works. For a while there I thought he was blind to the blue line.

 

[kthx]

So it's McAvoy on PP1 and Grizz on PP2?
I wonder if it was Vatanen that they tried to PTO but he is just a worse Grzelcyk.

Half of Bruins nation would have waived him just to get him off the roster by end. I remember distinctly how bad he got jeered at live games. The reality is that Wheeler is an even better player than Tyler Seguin, yet people constantly relive the "mistake" of letting Seguin go, but no one says the same about Wheeler.

 

[Smitty93]

I'm interested to see/hear about Wolff, mostly because I've never seen him as an NHL calibre prospect, though that's based on limited Frozen Four viewings and some reading. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but he's never seemed like the type of defenseman Cassidy and Sweeney prefer. Very much a Neely-style player.

wondering this aswell

This will be something I may have been missing. I could care less if he fights but he's the least physical D man on the team. This is a sink or swim season for him.

 

[Greek_physique]

I dont know if McAvoy on 1st pairing works....too many right hand shots

 

[LouJersey]

I would put Gryz on the first PP in Krug's role.

 

[DominicT]

wondering this aswell

Can't name names, but the player they were presumably interested in is holding out for a contract.

I don't know if they can bring anyone in before sending anyone down.

Rules allow 36 skaters and unlimited goalies in camp. They are at that limit if you count Pastrnak and Miller, if the latter has been cleared.

Whatever happened to him in Winnipeg is pretty amazing really. His confidence was probably shot to hell in Boston by the time he was shipped out.

Trading Wheeler helped us win a Cup, so personally, i think it helped both teams out. We reached an end goal, they got a kid who improved his game and became an elite player.

Wheeler netted pieces that helped bring a Cup to Boston. That's why no one considers it a mistake.

I would too. Then you get that fake shot-pass to Pasta for one-timers.

That's weird considering he was 2nd for the D last year in hits and first the year prior.

 

[LouJersey]

Anyone think Achan can surpise here this season?
