Yeah cause you haven't mentioned Spooner over and over and over since he was dealt to the Rangers.
For every Spooner post I submit you respond...so we're equals.

I like the idea of the player but I’m sure Ottawa felt the same way when they dealt Turris. I think he’s not poison or anything, but he’s a loser in this league and I don’t want to sink our eggs in a basket that already failed once.

Then stop mentioning Spooner and we can both forget about him equally.
Ditto. LOL
I will refrain.

Agree for the right player(s) I would have no problem moving out some prospects or current NHL guys, but we need to keep our top picks and a few of the prospects we don't want to move.

The only way the "quality" of our prospects gets increased is by not making the playoffs AND winning the lottery. Who wants that? Not me.... because there are no guarantees on the drafted player.
That line was dramatically better with Nash on it.
I did not mind Spooner while he was here, but would not want him now at his current salary he is overpaid. We already had/have guys that are overpaid now.

I'll take a stab at it:
Senyshyn and JFK to Arizona for Dylan Strome and a third-round pick.
The value there for the Bruins is amazing. Don't think the Coyotes are this down on Strome to pull the trigger. Strome dominate the AHL last year as a 20 yo rookie he is more or less in the same status as Senyshyn and JFK, but in the NHL, not the AHL.

Heck I'm willing to go further to repair Sweeney horrendous picks. How about zboril senyshyn and JFK for dylon strome. I bet they bite.

Have to make it Strome + 1. They are currently at the max 50 in contracts. Make it Krug straight up when he is better.

I think the Bruins could make a great offer and sign him as he would be in a great position moving forward.

Their in a rebuild and seem committed towards it. Like you said, last yr they traded those players away when they were still in contention.This tells me if you offer up some top prospects and with the 2019 draft being top-end heavy, anybody on the Rangers should/would be available.
I do feel that the Bruins need to make a move for a center more than any-other. They have depth on the wings in case of injuries, they can even bring guys up from providence who can chip in, but at Center they just don't have that.
Today they basically have two NHL caliber centers. Sure Backes can play there, he's good on draws and defensively, but he just doesn't have the foot speed and he seems like every other game he's leaving early or missing a shift because he got banged up. The Bruins have assets to bring in a Zibanejad or Duchene. Zibanejad may actually be more attainable do to Sweeney and Gortons trade history in the past but either-way the Bruins need more depth at center.
The Bruins reluctance to try Heinen at center is rather confusing as he seems like he'd be a perfect 3rd line center fit. He's smart has good vision and seems to have a great attitude where he'd be more than willing to learn from one of the greatest two- way centers of all-time.

Will the Bruins take a run at Blue Jackets star Artemi Panarin? - The Boston Globe
The Blue Jackets stand 263 days from losing prized left winger Artemi Panarin for less than a lettuce sandwich. Come July 1, he can depart the land of the blasting cannon as an unrestricted free agent, with suitors lining up from the red states to Red Square to acquire the 26-year-old puck wizard.
Columbus general manager Jarmo Kekalainen, the ex-Bruins winger (1989-91), won’t wait for the expiration date to hit. At the moment, he sounds inclined to play this out until the February trade deadline, but that’s a dangerous approach — particularly if clubs keep knock- knock-knockin’ on Jarmo’s door with enticing offers.
It is almost impossible for Kekalainen to win, in the context of netting the kind of sublime talent he is about to see go walking out that door.
Few clubs, if any, have the combination the Bruins can offer in the Panarin chase. Boston’s Russian population may be a little light, but it’s a first-class North American city, and the Bruins have abundant player equity to offer Kekalainen, be it in the form of young roster players and/or prospects.
Kekalainen’s target pool in a Boston swap no doubt would include the likes of Charlie McAvoy, Brandon Carlo, and Jake DeBrusk — the three kids GM Don Sweeney would be the most reluctant to surrender — and any number of others, including Danton Heinen and Anders Bjork on the varsity, and AHL stock such as Trent Frederic and Urho Vaakanainen.

Hmmm. I don't know if I trade McAvoy and DeBrusk both for him. I think that is insane, honestly, even if it might be the true mark of Panarin's value. Would be nice to see him in a B's sweater though.
I'm not trading either of those kids for Panarin. And I like Panarin, hard pass from me.
I would consider JDB in a package, but probably not McAvoy- we need him on the D and losing him to get Panarin would make another hole to fill. JDB would be wing for wing, and I think it could work, but it would be tough to see Jake go.

I see Debrusk as a borderline core Bruin right now and a piece I hope they keep. I want them to add talent but not for guys like Debrusk and Mcavoy. If that means no Panarin I’m ok with that.
Still want Duchene but Ottawa probably won’t deal him in the division. 3 good centers would make the team harder to beat and right now Backes is the weak link, upgrading him should give the biggest results.
