Brian Lee on waivers. Should we make a claim?

[boss3252]

I am sure Chiarelli knows him well. He is only 25 years old. We shoots right and I think would fit well in claude"s system. I think he is worth the risk 1,100,00 for this year and next. We need some depth on defence because come playoff time injuries are part of the game. Although we still need another defenceman to play on our top 4

Pass.

I would rather see Krug, Bartkowski, or Trotman while I am waiting for McQuaid to get healthy. I thought Johnson looked fine last night and is better than Lee.

His +/- this year is horrid....although he used to play on the Sens, so expect Chia to pick him up

Bartkowski got the call. He can fill the replacement role while McQuaid heals.


EDIT: Boychuk was hurt in practice. The Bartkowski recall might be more than filling in as the #7.

Johnny Boychuk exited the ice under his own power – albeit in a strong degree of pain – after the Bruins defenseman was hit in the right leg by a shot during drills at Friday afternoon’s practice just outside downtown Ottawa at the home arena for Carleton University. So it seemed relatively harmless when Boychuk limped off the ice under his own power.

But the rugged defenseman needed help getting back to the dressing room and never reappeared on the ice for the rest of practice, and that’s saying a lot for the player with perhaps the highest threshold for pain on the entire Boston roster.

It now appears perhaps a little more serious as the Bruins have recalled defenseman Matt Bartkowski from the AHL Providence Bruins, and the young blue-liner is expected to be with the team in Toronto for Saturday night’s game against the Maple Leafs.

Funny might not be the right word.

OMG lighten up buddy, it was a joke...jesus

But I don't mind that Boychuk is out being that I've seen him spend more time on his knee's then a hooker at a frat party.

 

[08SeaBass08]

No, we should not. He wasn't good enough to improve Tampa's dreadful D.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Saw him play a ton in Ottawa. Total failure.

Soft, not skilled, you'd hate him in a week. He's 1/3 of Hamilton today.

Yup, he's a total write-off at this point.
