Rumor: Bruins remain in the hunt for a top 6 forward.

[Trxjw]

I’m not trying to be dishonest. Senyshyn has been a disappointment in Boston and is the clear 3rd piece in the deal, I’d be surprised if anyone would give up a young top 9 forward a first and a blue chip prospect for Kreider..he isn’t stone.

Didn't mean for it to come off like that. Apologies if it did.

I don't think they need a blue chipper, but they'd probably want someone a bit better than Senyshyn. Heinen is a bit of a wild card. Lots of talent and had a good year last year, but he's been up and down this season.

Who knows though? I see some shades of a young Kreider in Senyshyn's game, maybe the Rangers do as well.

I want nothing to do with Simmonds or Carter. Stone or Kreider will be expensive but hell yes to them. 2 ideas.

Boston- Kreider

NYR- Bos 2019 1st, Trent Frederic, Jeremy Lauzon. Maybe amother add??


Boston- Stone

OTT- Bos 2019 1st, Conditional 2nd in 2020( becomes 1st if Stone re-signs), Peter Cehlarik, Jeremy Lauzon.

If that was the ask for Stone it would be done by now. I suspect that the ask right now is everything you mentioned and a Debrusk, Heinen, or Carlo. I suspect the GM in Ottawa will be forced to come down prior to the deadline, or he will be holding onto Stone going into July 1st. The teams involved I think have all set their absolute best price at this point, and the risk from Ottawa is that as the deadline nears those teams move onto other targets. Teams looking at Stone are treating him as a rental, Ottawa is treating him like he has term. It will play out over the next 24 hours, and I hope he doesn't move until tomorrow so I have something to watch on TSN.

And I think he is a good young player the Bruins would move given they have Moore on the bench and Vaakaneinen, Lauzon and Zboril in Providence.

I kind of wonder if the reason his name hasn’t popped up in rumours is because they’ll try to move Krug in the offseason.

I know that terrifies some fans. But the guy has a year left on a contract with one last chance at making some hay.

With McAvoy and Carlo and Debrusk coming up for more money and hopefully having added someone to play on the wing after half a decade of looking, they might not want to shell out for him.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Makes sense for boston. Glad they are still shopping.

Is this just a collection of what other, actual reputable people have said ?

 

[CycloneSweep]

Chiasson would probably look pretty good in Boston.

 

[Corvus Corax]

If Simmonds is a pure rental, it depends on the cost for me. Certainly not a 1st... and hopefully from the glut of near NHL ready B prospects rather than other picks.

Kovi with retention is also something I would not just dismiss.

If Simmonds was a pure rental at a low rental price ( no 1st or 2nd and no top 5 prospect) I would probably be fine with him on 3rd RW. STRICTLY rental though.

Kovalchuk I just have little interest in personally. I could be wrong and he could be ok with retained salary. Just not my cup of tea.

You can't say top6 forward(Boston needs a #2Rw) and then mention Carter.

No from the Sens if I am in charge, I want your good prospects/young players not these B-Prospectcs

I'd go for 1st+ Grzelcyk+ prospect not named Vaaks for Stone.

If NEITHER Krug or Gryz were on the team next year I would not be SHOCKED.

Chara Carlo
Vaakaneinen McAvoy
Moore/Lauzon/Zboril Miller

Or yes, maybe you keep Gryz to play with Miller. So many ways Sweeney can take this.

I wouldn't expect Chara as a given for next year. He's 41 and definitely showing his age.

Ya possible.

Would think if a signed Stone was coming back the Bruins would be ok with losing Grizz for him plus whatever.

Unsigned though I can’t see it

Chara is certainly a role player now a days. But he still plays against the hardest competition on a top 3 defensive team in the NHL.

You act like I made the damn rumor. I’m just the one posting it to the forum verbatim of what Fourth Period is reporting.

You really need to learn to read.

 

[easton117]

Was thinking, the more cynical side of my brain says Melnyk keeps Stone until July just to try and sell some tickets before the end of the season.

Could you really put it past him at this point?

I think you didn't think my post.

It was for Pagnotta.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Kreider talks never go well. He's a more valuable player than point totals reflect. Most casuals call him a 2nd liner, so I don't think fair value on both sides will be realized.

He and Zib are the two guys I want to keep in the NYR rebuild. Unless someone 'overpays' pretty significantly for Kreider, I think he stays a NYR.

 

[BostonBob]

Johnsson + Bracco + 2020 1st for Kreider

Why do some Leaf fans insist on posting stuff about their team in threads that have NOTHING to do with Toronto ???? WTF does your post have to with Boston looking for another Top 6 Forward ????

Because Toronto is the centre of the universe apparently.

Ohh I’m sorry thought you were yelling at me because of the title. It’s literally verbatim of what they said. Not what I said.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Johnsson + Bracco + 2020 1st for Kreider

Not a terrible offer but not a great one either, it's pretty fair. I'd rather keep Kreider as a Ranger fan though.

Jeez chill out

 

[wintersej]

I want Hoffman.

 

[Ryanfrancis4426]

DeBrusk is untouchable in any deal unless it’s a signed Stone or Panerin. Way too valuable to Bos playing on an ELC next season with having to pay Carlo McAvoy and Heinen.

 

[Legend123]

Oh mama Kreider would look insanely good with Boston. God damn I can only imagine all that speed and size with al already big team

Nah - I'm good.

I want to imagine the team with Stone.
