@DominicT Chicago with 4 seconds (35, 44, 51, 55 ) it would be nice to land a couple of those even 1 at this stage, but who do you think they could be targeting on the Blues ? Or could it be the Blues having interest in Frederic ?

Donny really getting nostalgic and trying to land Krug as well

I think a lot of trades go down today

Don’t think anyone wanted to trade there 1st with such a stacked draft

I want to see Gryz traded today. Nothing personal as I am a fan but now is the time to do it.

Hopefully the plane has nhl network on it

Anywhere there is news on this? I'm excited .

There’s been rumors here and there since the reports he refused to waive his NTC to go to Philly over the weekend.

Would take massive retention and other players on St. Louis’ part

 

[quietbruinfan]

Going to be the wet blanket here, but I expect the usual two or three player trades today. I do think Grz for a 3rd might be one.

 

[PlayMakers]

I would be surprised if Gryz is traded (by himself) today. What would be the point?

The B’s are already under the cap with a full roster, and they’re not going to sign a top4 UFA to take his place for less than what he makes.

Even if the plan is to replace him with a second-chance/discount bin UFA like OEL, wouldn’t it make more sense to sign that guy before trading away Gryz?

 

[veganbruin]

Bruins have plenty of space to sign Bertuzzi and resign who they need. If they want to make progress towards fixing the middle they could trade a goalie.

It would cost the B’s more to trade more than just Gryz so yes I think if he’s traded it will just be him.

Happy Mike Reilly On Waivers for Purposes of a Buyout Day everyone!

 

[TCB]

The St. Louis Blues held three picks in round 1. Center Dalibor Dvorsky at No. 10, Center Otto Stenberg at No. 25 and defenseman Theo Lindstein at No. 29. Maybe a deal surrounding Frederic/ Grizz for one of those Centers coming back.

 

[Dizzay]

Forbort trade
Gryz trade
Ullmark Trade
Reilly buy out

Let's get at er'

I’ll believe that when I see it

Nothing concrete no, just saw Dom mention the blues and figured I'd bring Krug up since Lucic will be back haha

 

[PlayMakers]

Ullmark is the bottleneck. I think Sweeney is trying to trade him but he can’t look desperate if he wants to get fair value.

If Ullmark goes we could see Gryz follow because the two combined with the space we have would give them $10m to play with. That’s enough for Lindholm and Hanifin, or O’Reilly and Soucy, or Scheifele and Graves...

But if they can’t move Ullmark we’re looking at guys like Wood, Comtois and Bellows on Saturday.

I disagree that Ullmark is the bottleneck. I fully expect him to be retained but it wouldn’t shock me if he is moved.

I can see the B’s moving D first before moving a goalie.

I read some Sweeney stuff where he said the goalie market is "interesting" which to me means teams are looking to steal them since there are so many available. The one good thing is apparently Hellebuyck wants 9 mil per year. Another problem is I don't think he deals a goalie to an eastern team.

I don't think they do anything today and it will make for another lame two days after alot of speculation.

Don already intimated that he is going to go dumpster diving for guys who want a one year reset on their careers. Logan Brown is another guy I can see them going after. I expect a surplus of AAAA guys hoping a couple hit.

Agreed 100% I don't think they want to move one, especially at a discount.

Wood and Bellows? Come on man haha.

I agree that if there’s nothing to open up space then there’s not a big deal in the works. But they’d go with McLaughlin and Merkulov over Bellows and Miles Wood for sure.

Goalie market is saturated so unless you’re getting a massive return you are better off holding on to them and then trade at the deadline or next year
