Proposal: Bruins Trade Proposals XVII - Mod in Op

[VanIsle]

Get Simmonds for 2nd max and Stone for a contact ext. Other then that don't f*** it up.

 

[Shaun]

stemp was it thats the move for the playoff push

GET THE DUCKBOATS READY

 

[BB88]

do they award the Stanley Cup for trying?

How do you not get these guys if you want to when they aren't going for 1st's?

I'm always scared this is something like being in on everyone but always offering 8.5-9 when others are offering 10, and then saying they tried.
These prices in Zucc/Dzingel/Nyquist have been cheap for deadline rentals.

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Bruins will absolutely not land Stone.

I got a bad feeling it will be “well, we tried” deadline and that’s absolutely inexcusable.

Sweeney would lose all credibility with the fanbase.

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

It’s the go to move for people since there really isn’t a whipping boy du jour this season

This post makes Backes and Acciari sad.

Stone is only worth it if he is signed long term. But then who else is worth anything. Simmonds for a 3rd or more is but guys it's gonna be another nothing year.

Stone in my books goes to Winnipeg

 

[JoeIsAStud]

I'm still panicked he is going to pay a lot more for a much lesser player in Simmonds.

Please no...

 

[Gargyn]

Simmonds is horrible now. It’s like Lucic in Edmonton now. Guys like him break down quick. And Philly fans can’t wait to move him. They all say the same thing. He sucks.

 

[C77]

Not with this fan. Sweeney showed he was ready to pay the price to win last year in the Nash deal.

I cant imagine what a trade for Zucker would look like. He would certainly be a great pickup for this team. I just dont see minny trading him for futures or Boston giving up what it would take to get him. I dont see a scenario where he is traded for non roster assets... I would think the return would be painful and best suited for the offseason.

i would say zucker is mainly a LW in the way that debrusk is. granlund is a guy i'd love to get.
left shot RW, sick skills, signed through 2019-20, and available.

nyquist had a NTC, so sounds like he chose the sharks (i would too, they are loaded). zucc went for 2 conditional 1st round
picks. dallas is not getting to the WCF, but the bruins could get to the ECF. no way i'd give a conditional 1st for him - let
alone a 2nd one. that deal fit dallas well since they won't make it and likely won't re-sign him. dzingel was two 2nd round
picks, and he's a LW. think that covers it.

 

[BruinsBtn]

I would give up a huge haul if they could get Stone but only if they could extend him. That guy would put them on par with TB.

 

[DKH]

Most don’t believe that Backes would waive.

Ottawa should want Backes

Big cap hit lower cash outlay perfect for a floor team

Exactly type of guy you want to mentor and lead Brady Tkachuk and young players

If I’m Ottawa I would accept
Vaakanainen
Backes
2019 1
2020 1 conditional

But Backes has to waive

And Boston could say ‘screw adding Vaakanainen, your nuts we can go hard on July 1’

Bruins need to sign
Carlo
McAvoy
Heinen

It's easy to give up conditional 1st's when you are at a WC spot, Dallas isn't going to go far in the playoffs, yes Dzingel can be LW but he'd be one of the best forwards on this team, and didn't even take 1st to get him.
If you are trying to contend you need to upgrade this roster with quality.

Atleast these should make sure Simmonds won't cost a 1st for Sweeney.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

Have to say I'm disappointed we didn't get Nyquist considering how little San Jose gave up for him. If Sweeney doesn't get us a top 6 forward type today that is a failure on his part, no excuses as this has been a position of serious need all year.

 

[TCB]

Bruins GM better get that top 6 winger.

Or what?

Sure, but does Backes want Ottawa?

 

[CDJ]

Nobody wants Ottawa lol

backes is a melnyk dream. large cap hit, minimal financial responsibility (especially after july 1).
problem is backes can only be traded to 8 teams as of july 1, and can't imagine ottawa is part of
that. we'll see. maybe getting scratched in the playoffs is enough to change his mind.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

I don't see why anyone would willingly accept to live in Ottawa, Edmonton, Buffalo or Winnipeg.

 

[Ned Bouhalassa]

Ottawa is not very far from Montreal (90 min). Still, a bit boring, for sure!

 

[xStanleyCupsFor]

Just wait til the usual suspects wake up

As long as EverettMike is posting to make me LOL

 

[Flannelman]

Nab Hoffman for 2nd and prospect and be done. Doesn’t feel like we’re gunna be close on Stone.
