That would leave them with only 6D. I wonder what is going on.

I thought he played well very confusing something burning in the fire here.

 

[GeeoffBrown]

bruins signed an ELC defenseman. I have to assume this is just cap shenanigans that will somehow give them $3m in extra space at the deadline

 

[BonMorrison]

When they signing Heinen tho? This must be related.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Mario Ferraro to the Bruins for a 3rd!

Take it or leave it!

For all we know, this was always the plan and they were just letting enough clock tick to get Jakub Zboril and his slightly higher cap hit ($1,137,500 vs. $775,000) up ahead of Mitchell.

Or its just a paper transaction to try to save a few shekels on the cap between games?

That is a bit more common when assigning a player that is waiver-exempt, and Boston does play again tomorrow.

Not like Mitchell is particularly likely to get claimed. He was a bit of a disaster for the Hawks last season.

He looked good in pre-season. AAAA player vibes.

Guy didn't look very good in his two game showing.
Be surprised if someone picks him up

Exactly my thoughts

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Zboril is on the second pair in Providence, where he belongs forever!

Said the minute the Hawks drafted him it was a mistake and that the guy was warm garbage.

And now here we are.

What's next for Ian Mitchell? Making tiktoks complaining food delivery drivers ain't getting tipped enough or teaching valet parking etiquette to customers on youtube shorts?

What's next for Ian Mitchell?

Provience Bruins, probably

 

[banks]

3rd pairing defender, at best. Every team has a Mitchell in the depth chart. I think he'll clear.

 

[Esq]

He's kind of a disaster out there, but probably better than some team's 6/7 D. Definitely a player that needs confidence to succeed.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

He was pretty shit in his first 2 games.

 

[weaponomega]

Look awful in the 2 games I watched. Whenever he had the puck he'd either turn it over or just throw it down the ice.

 

[BostonBob]

Mario Ferraro to the Bruins for a 3rd!

Take it or leave it!

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

OK OK I'll take a 4th instead of a 3rd.

Mario went to UMass-Amherst.

Dude iced the puck at least a dozen times it felt like and took stupid bone head penalties. Good riddance

 

[WarriorofTime]

Former second round pick. Signed last year after his college season ended. I guess they want to give him a look.
