Assuming it's over now, does anyone have a link to a transcript? Couldn't watch at work.
Sweeney was pretty much preaching this.

He said they would buy at the deadline if it was a player that could help going forward, not adding deadwood. Sweeney said he was not willing to sacrifice young talent for a rental. This got glossed over while people were lighting the torches and sharpening the pitchforks.
A guy like Landeskog is not a rental.
If the B's add at the deadline it won't be an Antoine Vermette. It will be for a player that they feel can help this year and going forward.
Where did you read that?Well Backes supposedly said he was not comfortable playing centre under Julien's system.
Are we now going to see a rejuvenated David or is he the dud that we have witnessed over the past 50+ games?
That's what I got from it as well - lots of fake news happening in this thread.
There are people that are calling out the team for not going full rebuild, but IMO there is a much larger segment of the fan base (maybe not hardcore) that the B's are competing for with the other Boston teams. I'm not sure a full rebuild works in this market? Right or wrong, I think ownership feels that the franchise needs to remain competitive while they attempt to retool.

If he wasn't comfortable why did he sign here (other than $$). Kind of **** on Backes' part if that's true. He was signed to be a centre & winger, and he doesn't feel comfortable at C under Julien's system? That makes me think he's not interested in working Defensively.
A guy like Landeskog is what they need to stay far away from.
Sweeney won't sacrifice young talent for a rental. He'll sacrifice it for a marginally older player with a large cap hit who appears on the downswing like Landeskog.
Much better.
Cassidy's mannerisms are hauntingly similar to Heath Ledger's Joker.
ah ok. I read as in he said he didn't want to play C during the season because he wasn't comfortableHe said it after the Detroit games where his line got lit up.
He signed here believing he'd be used as a center most of the time. There are quotes from Backes to that effect.
Julien decided to use him exclusively as a winger.
So after 5 consecutive months as a winger in games and practice, he was tossed into the center position (after practicing as a winger earlier that same day). He was a disaster in his own end, and claim afterwards he wasn't familiar enough with the responsibilities of a center-man in Julien's defensive system to play it effectively at that point in time.
Somebody alert the mods, Sweeney has hacked Glory's HFB account!!!!!
haha. Please post a quick synopsis... Got to catch some of this parade.
I kinda like Cassidy's answers to be fair.
"Z was under the weather". That seems fishy.

Says he has experience working with Spooner in the A and knows how to motivate him.
League has changed to more of a "developmental" and "teaching" league due to the salary cap.
Told Clode at the outset he wanted to become an NHL HC again.
ah good to hear Sacco will keep his job, nice!!
Ladyfan reported the other night that she could see a bunch of the players had their own water bottles, indicating a cold was working it's way around the locker room. Cassidy seems to be sniffling a lot during his presser too.
Pandolfo to the bench. Sacco now in charge of the D.
