Disagree in a pretty big way. Smith is finding his feet with the team but he’s been pretty solid, had some chances and gets the puck off.

think I just don’t get what they’re doing with Senyshyn. Down two right wings and the plug ins are fizzling so far. He looked like a solid NHLer in his limited time, why not give him a game or two?

Not sure what your seeing from Smith. McAvoy set him up down low and he walked out and put it in the goalies chest. Got set-up mid-slot fired it up and over. Other than those two plays he's basically been invisible.

Chara at 750k and Kruggy at 6.5 all day over Gryz

No prob moving on from Krug, and certainly Chara. Gryz is just not ready.

Gryz was clearly a misjudgment. Maybe go to Moore? But this is a transition year...paying Krug and Chara would just be delaying the inevitable...probably only for a matter of months...

Feels like its been so long since a forward came up from the system and performed and became a solid offensive player..I guess its Debrusk in 17-18. Even before that though..I cant think of many in the past 4-5 years. Everyone that has looked promising has just fizzled out, and/or got traded and became something on another team.

approaching an epic all time level of frustration... i think paitence was at an all time low to begin with after the covid delays

ultimately... this team still has too much pedigree... i dont envision it will be hard to make the playoffs.. but theres been no joy watching their games so far

could they be missing chara that much? was he far more responsible for their heart and soul than we were led to believe?

and actually we can trace back to the backes trade... and lump in the krug loss...

these are 3 big locker room guys that arent around anymore... i thought our leadership group was so deep it could handle these loses... am i wrong?

the talent is here... once the ship sails in the right direction guys will get their goals. obviously pastrnak is a huge loss though.

just feels like its mostly a leadership/confidence issue. shake it off boys... even if the first goal is a lucky bounce,.. get it done... break that ice

Bruins really only have 4 skilled creative F.....88, 63, 37 and 46.

Kase has some skill but can't stay healthy.

Debrusk has some skill but zero hockey sense.

The rest of the forward group are a combination of two-way guys, bangers, grinders and some JAGs.

That's why they should have started the rebuild.

Grzelcyk is a good 3rd pairing defenseman. He’s not worth the contract they just gave him.

He fills some needs and is exactly what they need, no way they do it.

Anyone other than Pasternak and McAvoy.

Certain guys could be addition by subtraction if included. If you could get out of Coyle's deal right now do you do it?

But we CANNOT offer our first rounders. Could be top 5 picks.

He doesn’t the stones nor does he have the pieces.


Every team has the pieces, draft picks, prospects, players. You never know what a team wants or will except for a disgruntled player that wants out. That is the kind of thinking that will have us without Krech and Bergy in a few years and wonder why we don't have a decent top center. Time to man up and make a pitch, gotta give to get or dwindle into the bottom of the league after this core is done. The nest Bergy and Krech are not in this system

Sweeney won’t part with the pieces that get it done is what I should have said.

They would draft someone who they could get in the 4th
