I like this type of deal but I sure hope PC's scouting staff see something here, it's a gamble.
Yeah, that one definitely worked out and I'm not saying Connolly can't, just think in general the odds are typically against these draft disappointments really taking off elsewhere.Idk, Minnesota did pretty well grabbing el Niño from the Islanders. I know it's just one example but sometimes guys just need a change of scenery or a different system to take the next step.
No need for Ryder now because if memory serves me, Connolly's parents are from NL so the Bruins have gotten their piece of the rock.
Could be the kinda of steal you get when a team like Tampa has too many good assets for a Cap Era.
Isn't he a 4th liner with potential? Yikes.
Least it is better than having Caron in the lineup. If he can find himself and play like a top 10 draft pick then this will look real good down the road.
Yeah, top 10 in the draft potential.
I think Elder could be the D target. I'm trying to remember the deal the Bruins worked out with Vancouver last year. It was contingent on someone moving to Pittsburgh.
Much more comfortable with a move like this than for a rental old fart.
You've watched this team for the last few years. What makes you believe that Clode will bench his binky? Pandalfo had to retire to get out of playing for the Bruins every year!
It stings, he has upside but I don't see where he fits in the lineup. He needs a good distributor to be even remotely worthwhile.
