How does a player pile up 91 PIM in 863 minutes of ice time with only 2 fights? 10% of a season spent in the box or in the locker room?
Yeah so would I. Too bad 18M is a lot of money to leave on the table.
Exchange rate....How do you come up with $18 Million?

Maybe the poster was talking about the 3 years at 6 M$ per left on Cory Schneider contract, but other than that.How do you come up with $18 Million?

Happy you caught this for me.How do you come up with $18 Million?
So Heinen will improve his scoring but Wood can't? Who were Wood's linemates again last season? Heinen had two seasons of college and a full year of AHL and play-offs before he broke in. Wood one season in college and 15 AHL games. Wood has three more years left at 2.5 per, could be a steal.
What the hell does Heinen have to do with anything?
People are obsessed with him. Reading the heinen thread while I was gone was mind numbing
Yes wood might improve. Right now people are suggesting we take on a worse contract than the one people are already crying about to downgrade in net and add a fringe 3rd/4th liner. It is what it is. It’s insanity
You won’t after next year
I just picked any Bruin that needs to improve, sorry to strike a nerve.
Halak vs a healthy Schneider, give me Schneider every day of the week. Halak was great in some part due to what was our team, and Cory would do the same IMO...
Anyways, was more pointing out people being critical of a player they have prob seen play 5 times at most and writing him off "as is" yet Bruins of course have a sky is the limit potential..
No way do I give up JDB to move Backes tho

But I know I know...he hits!

Not that I would ever suggest that $5M isn't a lot of money or that I would reasonably hope Backes would make that decision.
I do wonder however if the idea of finishing out these years in the AHL (either with the Bruins or after a trade) might help influence his decision just a smidge. Especially considering some of the health-related stuff he's gone/going through of late.
And pictures? Well that goes without saying.
Question: With talk earlier in the offseason that David Backes may require surgery and for what is yet unknown, do you think the team might be saying "let's try physio first and if that doesn't work then surgery" as a delay tactic so that they could place him on LTIR for possibly the season?
An NHL player agent: (Laughs) would you really be surprised if that happens? (Laughs again)
Now, I'm not suggesting anything at all here, but pretty surprising that there hasn't been a peep since Sweeney first mentioned it don't you think?

Chris Kreider For David Backes Trade Brewing?
Boring off-season and there is zero percent chance this is happening, but I'm still posting for some trade talk fun.
Give me Halak any day of the week and his 2.75 mil cap hit for one more year over Schneider and his 6 mil dollar cap hit for the next 3 years. Career Numbers are near identical and I'll take Halak today and add in that extra 3.25 million for two more years with Schneider, big time pass.

Wood scored more goals then Heinen in 17-18 and would easily have surpassed him last year if not for injury... You could go wood-coyle-Heinen as Danton played great RW last year. Wood brings more speed, physicality and goal scoring ability, especially playing with a C like Coyle. He's nowhere near the all around player Heinen is, but I would love to see them on the same line with a good center.
No kidding! Like what the hell? Who is Lyle Richardson and why would he suggest something so asinine?Someone should lose their job over this.
$5 M still a lot of money to leave on the table especially when you’ve only made close to $60 M in career earningsHow do you come up with $18 Million?

I went to Spectors Hockey and could not find one instance of Lyle, whomever this is, proposing a one for one swap or a trade for that matter involving both players. The closest I saw is that the Bruins may be interested in Kreider, but they would have to get rid of Backes' contract first (McAvoy and Carlo still unsigned). Nowhere did I see the proposed trade, unless I am missing something?Lyle Richardson of Spectors Hockey explains that the Rangers could get into the idea of a one for one swap for forward Chris Kreider.
