Smith wasn't truly awful until the season started. 16 goals and 36 points the season prior. Basically the numbers he put up in his last season in Nashville before we signed him.Reilly and Smith were awful players at that point. Forbort is a player a team could expect to trade at the deadline for a draft pick.
It's his cap hit. Same as Forbort. Decent player, not worth their hit.
The same Reilly was offered an NHL contract quickly after leaving the Bruins at a price point closer to what he is worth.
Forbort is not a 3 million dollar player. I'd be pretty surprised if waived today that Forbort would be claimed.
And Bruins likely not sellers, so if he's moved at deadline, it's to move the cap space, would be highly surprised if he brings back anything on his own.
