i started that and i’m never wrong

 

[shelbysdad]

keep throwing lohrei and lysell at san jose until they give us hertl

do some tampa LTIR tricks with hall and foligno if needed

no....we need those cheap contracts next year and we can't afford him this year

 

[Kegs]

@Dom also I looked it up. Colorado is pretty banged up. They might need some help.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Reilly will be a detriment wherever he goes, so no.

We where singing his praises when we got him at the trade deadline and he was very good for that stint. Maybe he can repeat that 20 game magic team "B" is looking to get out of him?

 

[Dizzay]

I have a question, would people move both Forbort and Reilly, knowing that Zboril is the LD depth and say Bortuzzo is RD depth?

 

[bbfan419]

Absolutely. I don't know what his contract looks like but if they could fit the $$$$ in I'd do it. He'd be a Center all ready in place to go in once DK retires. Good for now, great for later.

AAV is $6m, so some salary would need to go back.

 

[KrejciWinger]

Next year yes, this year no.

 

[Coach Parker]

You weren't asked about Boston. You were asked about team B coach.

Oh, well then. Simple. I ask my owner, 'do you want 3 million in playoff revenue now for 4 million next year in salary with a chance for more'?

Let the owner decide if his team will have more than 2 playoff games worth of revenue to offset Reilly's salary next year.

 

[LavioletteScores]

Depends on the type of team I have. Particularly f it is a younger team (Buffalo), I would make that deal to get playoff experience and the opportunity, i'll take those chances.

This is what I was thinking. And for lesser market teams, getting playoff dollars is a boon, although Reilly is certainly no guarantee of success. Thus, I would only give what Boston really wants: cap relief. Nothing else.

 

[JoeIsAStud]

The answer is no. I can't envision a scenario I would move forbort, but if someone wants to overpay for him in a big way then perhaps, but I still think it would be a mistake

And if I move forbort I'm keeping Reilly.

I don't get the hatred for Reilly, he has generally been a decent bottom pair D-man in his time here. He is banished to purgatory because of his contract, and Boston's cap games

Add Ahcan and get something back

 

[Jdavidev]

Before the Hall and Foligno injuries, I was for just a Bjugstad pickup for depth and let's roll. Now, I'm for getting a proper scoring middle six wing, even with term, assets be damned and figure it out next year.

Greer, Lauko, Koppanen as the next F up, not good enough. They have like 9 NHL D for the playoffs, they are good there.

Wilson is a pipedream but man if the Bruins got him just give us the cup now, it would be unfair.

 

[LavioletteScores]

I know he's been injured but if he can play, I would love Tyler Johnson. I don't think he'd be expensive to get and if Chicago is willing to retain, or another team is, then I could see that as an educated dice roll. He's always been a proven playoff performer.

 

[GatorMike]

The idea of adding a forward that makes $5.1 million for next season while Pastrnak is unsigned seems flawed.

Sure, but I'd only do it if someone retained salary. Not saying it's ideal, but neither is Pasta not being signed yet. I don't know what the hold up is, but whatever the Bs do, they will have to account for Pasta if he signs.

He has been bad this year and outscored by Frederic. Not the same player and is now a 5'8" soon to be 33 year old. I'd avoid.

Go after Domi who has twice the goals and doesn't get paid 5,000,000 next year.

You'd have a riot here if they paid him Backes money and he scores 10 or less next year.

no.
you trade coyle forbort or gryz next year. keep wilson and sign pasta for 12mil.
also this is more for this year and the cup.
next year is next year

Question...and don't all answer at once.

You are team B. You are 1 point out of a playoff spot and need a win to get in. You are down to 5 starters on defense because of injury but they will be ready for the playoffs, if you get in.

Do you trade for Mike Reilly to try and get in?

Remember, you can make trades after trade deadline, the player you acquire just isn't allowed to play in the playoffs.

Wow thats tough. I don't really want his contract for next season (though I could buy him out). If I think Reilly is the difference between a win or a loss and Boston will take future consideration then probably

 

[TCB]

Pastrnak being unsigned in it self is flawed. So lets go all in while were this close

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

The idea of adding a forward that makes $5.1 million for next season while Pastrnak is unsigned seems flawed.

With Pastrnak not re-signed at this point... gotta think him not being here is a possibility at this point.

 

[Coach Parker]

What about:

To Boston:

LW/RW James van Reimsdyk (50% Retained) Pending UFA

To Philadelphia:

D Mike Reilly
D Jakub Zboril
2023 3rd

Shop elsewhere for a player on an expiring contract rather than Reilly.

 

[TCB]

These injuries to Hall and Foligno, makes me want to add some center depth if at all possible. Its a long @SS haul to win the cup and I wouldn't mind getting a Reinhart or a Bennett to help take us there.
