Can a mod lock this one up and we can discuss this non-BOS transaction in the rumor/transactions thread etc....

Good, it would've been an overpayment.

How about Caron for Jagr?

Thank GOD he went to ****tsburgh. No thanks Jeff lol on Morrow.

I would do it...at least we would have ONE finisher on the team.

Doesn't solve the overall problem though...but would certainly help.

See bolded.

You're better than that.

No I'm really not, ask my wife.

No offense, but I'd just rather have a blue chip offer of a top pairing d prospect as opposed to a 3rd line grinder prospect (which is where I see the 2 of them). Adding stuff isn't going to change my mind.

If Boston is a seller years from now and is dealing an old Chara, I'd rather get one really good prospect over a "meh" prospect and a 2nd.

Coming to Boston would have gone over like a fart in church at Thanksgiving.

Well... Cam said hello.

Id also want something better than a 2nd pairing offensive defensemen for my 30 goal scoring power forward and a young top 4 two way guy.

But look how that turned out.

choose pitt, please !!!

Why is everyone down on Morrow, especially as third line possibility? Yes, I know he's old, yes, I gather he's played poorly this year, but from what I know, he would fit in well here.

That said, if you were Brendan Morrow, would you rather play for Boston or Pittsburgh? I'm not happy to say so, but clearly, the Penguins are "the class of the East" at present, and even if we wound up adding X, Y or Z, they're still deeper than the B's.

So who is left for competition for Iginla? SERIOUS competition

The only team Morrow has been asked to waive his NTC is #Penguins. He has not been asked to waive it for #Bruins as of yet. #tradetracker

I lol'd.

Iginla is the prize, and the better player. Now Pitt will be out for him, whittling the list down to 3 teams. And we're the only remaining team in the East, which is where I'd look to send Iginla if I were the Flames. I think it strengthens our prospects of landing him.
