Mack and Carlo are your two rocks, I hope they pay Charlie 8x8 and Carlo 6x8 when their deals are up and call it a day
I bet you can get Carlo long-term for somewhere around $4m-4.25m

Bumping this thread because I feel it's been flying under the radar... but is anyone else impressed with Carlo's development offensively so far this year?
He was making some great plays in the offensive zone last night against Toronto. Looked really confident and assertive, making good reads, carrying the puck and shooting for rebounds. The production is there too as he's on pace for around 30 points almost a quarter of the way through the season. It's pretty encouraging.
I like him better with Grzelcyk. He feels less pressure to dish to Krug.
Maybe

Grz Carlo
Krug Miller
Krug does not belong on the bottom pairing.
Not really a bottom pairing. Being on PP1 he'd still get minimum 18 a night.Krug does not belong on the bottom pairing.
Definitely true. Watching him pre-NHL, the kid showed signs of having decent offensive game. I have enjoyed watching him shoot this season when in the past he would have passed the puck. He and Charlie both need to look to score more. Pretty clear that Bruce has been encouraging Carlo to jump into the offensive play more often. Now if he can just develop a bit of a mean streak... Kid is so freaking humble and nice.My feeling is more "about time" because you knew he had some offense to his game. He was just so focused early on with being a shutdown guy that he didn't show his offensive side.

Brandon Carlo is grateful for Bruins’ support after personal tragedy - The Boston Globe
Brandon Carlo was in the Bruins lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Canadiens, just as he was Sunday in Detroit. The 23-year-old defenseman is a vital piece of the Bruins puzzle, a 6-foot-5-inch, 212-pound defenseman with brute strength and superior skill.
In fact, Carlo was on the ice for the first 55 games this season, until last Saturday, when he left the team for what was announced as a family matter. And now, after heading to Wyoming to attend the funeral of his brother-in-law, Carlo will play the remainder of the schedule with a very special memory in his heart.
In a quiet moment following practice Tuesday at Warrior Arena, Carlo spoke about Levin Comly, the husband of his sister Jessica, who died tragically at the age of 35. Out of respect to his family, Carlo kept the details private, but he was honored to describe a man who was always smiling, made anyone in the room happier by his presence, and who will be missed terribly by a tight-knit group of relatives.
But being part of the Bruins is also part of Carlo’s healing, something he felt the moment he rejoined the team Sunday in Detroit, ready to play, but also ready to feel the support of friends.
“It’s been fantastic to be around these guys, to see everybody here,” he said. “These are some of my best friends, a brother in a different aspect.
“It was nice because they just gave me a hug when I came back, accepted me back, and to have that to kind of get your mind off everything else is really, really good for you.”
Anything yet on his health?
He's our 2nd best D by a wide margin.... if he's out for any longer than a couple weeks I'll be very concerned.
I really hope Brandon isn't hurt badly. Looking at the replay you can see Davidov intention by really put some power to that elbow to Carlo face and it must have felt.
Cheap play and of course the Bruins lose their shutdown Dman right before the playoffs. NHL and their OPS should be dissolved. This is the shit that players hate and the cheap stuff that will only increase when accountability is gone from the game.
