a good question was posed in the injury thread. is there roster juggling to fit Forbort back under the cap today? who goes where?

Kinda feels like it's gonna be lohrei and beecher going down cause they're both waiver exempt.

Not sure Beecher’s play has warranted a demotion, but he is exempt. Hands are probably tied at the moment.

Sucks though, hopefully it’s not an extended stay.

yep. Cap and numbers game (waiver exemption).

Tough to swallow. To me, Beecher has done everything a coach might ask of him. He's a rookie. He's learning. He was also the one constant on the fourth line up to this point and has earned his position in Boston.

I hope this is simply a way to make room for Forbort and Carlo, and temporary.

One thing is for sure, there's a log jam at defense. Time to start dealing, Donnie.

I don't see anyone moving save Gryzelick.

I haven't been to confession in fifty years, but okay.

I liked Beecher the first 10 games more than I do now. He stopped winning faceoffs and isn’t violent enough for me. That’s just me though. He has the nhl tools for sure. I can see him being part of bostons future. He still has some developing to do.

I’d just keep the log jam. Playoffs are gruelling on defence. Bruins have really deep defence. Love this team. I don’t see any dire need to make a trade. If anything I’d love a big violent player with can skate with the best. And a faceoff guy who can play up the lineup. My expectations aren’t high with the draft picks left on the shelf. Could do a prospect trade. Maybe. But teams love 1st.

Doesn't Wortherspoon have to go down at some point too since I believe he was an ECU?

Some clarity on #NHLBruins defenceman Parker Wotherspoon.To the best of my knowledge, he was an emergency recall on January 6. Therefore, once healthy, he must go down to Providence. No Waivers.He can play up to 9 games and then go back down. No Waivers.

After 9 games he must be converted to regular recall and then would require waivers to go to Providence. Also, even if he plays every game the rest of the way, he will not reach 80 career NHL games and will become a Group 6 UFA at the end of the season.

Boquist is a JAG on steroids. Who cares if the Hawks grab him.

 

[bruinmann77]

I tell you i gotta think DS is going to make a move

 

[Kazcram]

he's on fire!

quick -- give him away!

I'd believe, but it seems unlikely to work again this season. they got smart and lucky with Mitchell.

lol until i read this i totally forgot mitchell exists

He had a 3 game stretch a couple weeks back where he struggled from the dot. Other than that he has been consistently good at the dot all season

 

[HustleB]

I don’t mind Beecher or Lohrei having time to work on his game while Sweeney works on the roster. I do think Grezclyk or Forbort should move for cap space. I like Gryz better in the past but this year I feel Forbort has been more valuable.

Who the other day was saying we needed more offence from the back end?

Man it's been a bonanza from the D for a while now!

I have always been a big Carlo supporter, difficult to do in this town, but I seriously think this kid should consider a career change.

It was another concussion seemed like very little contact on the play ,that’s very concerning

Bruins Get Healthy and Compliant, for Now

Saturday nights 9-4 shellacking of the Montreal Canadiens saw the return of several of the Bruins walking wounded, namely Brandon Carlo, Derek Forbort, Linus Ullmark and Matthew Poitras. The return…

Is there anyone else injured atm?
I’ve liked Parker’s game of late, would be tough to lose him via waivers. Hopefully they don’t try to sneak him through

Gotta think the B’s roster is at max right now and not sure anyone else is waiver exempt

Watched the Bruins-habs game on CBC last night and Garry Galley mentioned he thought the Bruins will be moving a goalie and most likely Ullmark by the TDL to acquire help at forward.
