Proposal: All Bruins Trade talk - Mod Warning in OP

[bp13]

I personaly would prefer to keep Gryz and trade Krug. Prefer to do it in the off season but if Bruins want to add right now do it. Krug has more value so this lessons the cost and will get expensive with his next contract. Hurts to give up his offensive from the backend but you have a price to pay.

Krug straight up for Schenn is the trade I would make. Blues have to make room for a D man or work out a three way trade if necessary.

A) I'm not convinced Krug has that much more value than Gryz. He's better offensively obviously, but he's a UFA after next season with injury concerns. Further, the acquiring team for Krug is likely in the same spot we are, which is trying to make a run in the next two years. That makes them less likely to want to deal assets we'd want, no?

B) Why would StL want Krug over Gryz? They're not making a run this year, and they've got a lot of salary to deal with. If I'm them I might strongly prefer Gryz.

Name the last trade between Ottawa and Boston that directly impacts the NHL Roster, NOT Belleville and Providence.

i guess i have to put it in call caps for you

HOFFMAN WAS TRADED TO FLORIDA BY SAN JOSE

BOSTON SHOULD HAVE DEALT WITH SAN JOSE

This also gives Schenn (or said acquired player) more time to gel with the team and their new role.

Acquired players at the deadline only have what? less than 20 games to do this then the postseason begins?

Sounds silly to say but IMO thats not a lot of time. And the more time the better.

Yep, whoever they add would like it to be a early addition.

Give the team a boost and time to get going, and if you want/need go get a cheaper player at the deadline day as well.

Anyone else feeling a little nervous with this front office making a trade ? I know I am. I just don't see this team competing with the iron of the league even with adding said rumored players.

I truly hope its a game changing trade not selling the farm kind of trade for a good not great player. Make it with the future in mind not just this season. We are not beating the Caps or Tampa unless its a huge add.

Krug 3rd in TOI behind Grizz & McAvoy last night in a game where they trailed for much of the game & Krug had almost 4 mins on the PP. If Krug doesn't play more mins than Grizz in a game like last night then why is he the guy we wanna keep?

Honestly trying to understand why trading Krug isn't more heavily considered.

for WHO

for literally just draft picks. what are you not understanding about this? I'm honestly stumped as to how much more clearly I can say this.

WHY WOULD San Jose have done that....

doesn't have to be St Louis. If Grizz is so valued by the team & coach (2nd in TOI last night in a game where they were chasing a lead) then look at takers for Krug and accept that you'll get less in return.

Unique skillset.

Another thing, people always bring up Krug getting a raise and his money is spent elsewhere. Now Charlie and Gryz get the majority of the PP time, increasing their point totals and thus increasing their contract demands when they're up. Gryz won't be staying at 1.4 on his next deal.

A) Krug has more value than Gryz and that lessons the price as I said before. I know my decision isnt popular but I personally think Gryz will have more value for the teams future. Right know Krug is the better player offensively but a better forward group trough trades should make his lost offensive game up.

B) I dont think the Blues think they in a rebuilt. A tweek here in there to change the locker room culture and they should be back in the race is their believing I think.

How about a deal between San Jose and Boston?

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

WHY WOULD San Jose have done that....

why DID they trade HIM TO Florida?

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Them - ya.

Me - **** that !

Agree, If they did that I would want them to lose so the front office gets fired because they are in over their heads

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

why DID they trade HIM TO Florida?

that could've been a deal struck between Ottawa and San Jose, and then SJ and Florida what does that have to do with Boston?

you do know why Hoffman was traded, right, and is it coincidence that San Jose acquired Erik Karlsson not long after that

 

[maxl7]

that could've been a deal struck between Ottawa and San Jose, what does that have to do with Boston?

That seems highly unlikely, given that Ottawa put conditions on the Karlsson deal. Seems like they weren't expecting San Jose to flip Hoffman.

 

[Pia8988]

that could've been a deal struck between Ottawa and San Jose, what does that have to do with Boston?

It wasn’t. There are even reports Florida approached SJ after the initial deal. You need to pick better hills to die on.

 

[Alicat]

Anytime between now and 1pm would be a preferable time to make a trade Don

This is beginning to stress me out and I'm not even in the conversation, what are you attempting to allude to?



If the rumor is true about nobody besides Gibson being off the table in Anaheim, I'd love to see what the Ducks want for Rakell.

I hope you're talking about Tarasenko and not Schenn.

But Gryz will not be paid the something north between 6 - 7 million Krug will paid with his next contract

 

[Mainehockey33]

I hope so, he definitely deserves it.

since when is Anaheim in the discussion, last I knew Murray isn't changing the voice in Carlyle?
