Kassian skating first line with McJesus and LD last night...

Did they have a “For Sale” sign taped below his number?

If we get Kassian hopefully it’s for one of our many 4th liners, otherwise half the team will be 4th liners lol.

Heinen/Donato + Hughes FOR Zack Kassian

 

[MoffatMan]

Based on Fluto's article and the Bruins scouting the Oilers, I wonder if Sweeney is looking to grab RNH and Puuljarvi in a package.

 

[CDJ]

No thx on that one

Heinen is already a much better player than Kassian

 

[kdog82]

Heinen/Donato + Hughes FOR Zack Kassian

You nuts?

 

[TSBruins13]

I wouldn’t mind Kassian for our third or fourth line but he cost better be nothing more than a 3rd round pick.

I wouldn’t mind Kassian, but this is the question, where do they put him? On the 4th line in place of Acciari? That would be ok, but Kuraly would have to play C and he’s better on the wing.

Despite the Oil playing him 20 minutes last night, he’s obviously not the Top 6 wing the B’s need, nor is he the 3C they need. To me, this makes a deal for him (to add some grit) “nice”, but not a necessity.

The move last night kind of backfired on EDM. The two games before, playing 13-14 minutes, he had 2g/1a and was a +2. Last night he was 0/0 and -1, although he did have 6 shots and 5 hits.

There seems to be a lot of interest/activity between EDM and BOS scouts, but not sure what we are talking about?

No to Jessie p but yes to jake virtanen. If I'm going for 1 st round draft bust that has potential virtanen has the more upside and can hit like a truck.

Man there are going to be some disappointed people on here Feb 25th. Sweens doesnt have the sack to pull off a blockbuster. We'll be sifting through the dumpster for scraps.

Would love to be proven wrong. Might not be a horrible thing anyway. Load up July 1st for a run.

Sellers' guide to NHL trade deadline: Which prospects are...

If the Bruins want to deal from their prospect pool this deadline, I don’t see them in a position of strength. It’s hard to pick out a Bruins prospect who has really helped his stock this season and NHL scouts are truly excited about. Urho Vaakanainen is a good prospect with a high hockey IQ but has been injured for a good stretch of the season. Jack Studnicka is a player whom scouts feel could be a bottom-six center. Center Trent Frederic has played well of late, including a brief NHL appearance. He also has bottom-six center potential.

Not sure how much Vaak's value has taken a hit due to his injury, but if Pronman is correct and that's the perception of Studnicka around the scouting community...YIKES.

He literally pulled off a blockbuster this time last year

Were there Bruins scouts there?

I wouldn't call the Nash trade a blockbuster.

 

[The don godfather]

Getting a pageau and Silverberg on trade deadline without sacrificing the future is a blockbuster to me. Just as effective.

Rick Nash??? Come on.

Ok, we'll take Draisaitl off of their hands for them.

I don’t know . I stay out of this thread mainly because I know f*** all about the other teams but Sweeney tried to get Tavares and he tried to get Kovalcuck but it seemed like they chose other teams for whatever reason . He will go after a big fish if he can .

Shinzawa: Bruins will make a trade. But how much of their...

Paywalled, but the real interesting part is the first part:

“I keep hearing the Bruins are into something big,” said one executive.
He then followed up with a question: Did the Bruins’ bosses promise the veterans — Zdeno Chara, Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Tuukka Rask — they would acquire help for a bona fide playoff push this season?

The other interesting piece is that Fluto indicates that the Bruins wouldn't shy away from moving on from Carlo if they could get a similarly-aged productive forward in return. It's not really a deadline move, but I'd love for the Bruins to pull their own Hall-for-Larsson type swindle.

 

[CDJ]

I wouldn't call the Nash trade a blockbuster.

They moved a roster player who was scoring at a decent pace, a solid prospect, and a 1st for him. That’s a pretty big trade. Any time a 1st is involved it’s a big trade

 

[NeelyDan]

Depends how you define 'blockbuster' - can mean different things to different folks. Sweeney brought in a big name and gave up some assets to do so. No arguing that.
