Providence Bruins General Discussion IV

[GoBs]

Who sits when Nordstrom returns?
Donato or Backus
Can’t imagine Sweeney wants to see his two free agent signings Moore and Backes sit out

 

[GoBs]

They know Vaakanainen is premier prospect and want trade him away

 

[Ratty]

I think you meant "won't".

 

[chizzler]

Two guys I wouldn’t trade. Vakkanainen and Frederic. Everyone else in the table.

No one from Providence.

 

[Fenian24]

Don't remember that

Charlie Simmer was a proud member of the Springfield Kings

 

[Fenian24]

If they’re interested in Vaak than I’d ask about Kane lol. If Vaak was traded for Saad I’d lose it. I don’t know why, but Saad doesn’t really do it for me. Looks like a disappointment waiting to happen.

Saad is your type of player. Fast. Skilled. Not overly aggressive. Can score and skate, he isnt 22 but you would still like him

 

[Fenian24]

To be honest I’d rather give Cehlarik a chance before trading for Saad. Why give up good assets for another 40-50 point winger? Also adds another $6M to the cap.

Because Saad is proven. A 25 goal scorer and Cehlarik is probably never going to play for Cassidy. He also didn't produce with Krecji when given the chance

My type of player? Lol. Unlike you, I really don’t have a type. I don’t care if they’re big or small, as long as they’re good.

Saad is interesting because he seems to show up in the postseason which I’m assuming we both want to see, so as long as he doesn’t cost one of the better prospects I’d be ok with it.

As for Cehlarik, he’s more of the type of player I think is missing right now in the lineup. Has some size and smarts, hard to knock off the puck. I think there’s too many small speedy guys that you like that get knocked off the puck too easily.

Yes I'm all about small, speed and skill. I would trade any prospect in the system for Miles Wood or Josh Anderson. That said there is no internal answer for the Bruins needs this season

And that’s the difference between us, you overrate physicality. Trading Vaak who looks like a lock for the top 4 in the future for Wood who’s a good 3rd liner is crazy. I understand you prefer that type of player, but the value isn’t even close. Serious question, is Wood this season that much better than Wagner?

Yes, based on skill his speed is far better than Wagners. Also if I have to hear from some how Heinen should be a 50 point player because of last year Wood should become a regular 20 goal scorer based on the same equation

If Sweeney trades Vac for a third liner, he should be fired on the spot.

 

[Tampbear]

Cehlarik is exactly the kind of player the Bruins need, it would be really nice if he could fit into the lineup. Frederic also would provide exactly what this team needs right now, and could play himself onto the lineup this year. Frederic is my only completely off the board prospect, I wouldn't trade Studnicka unless part of a package for a superior young center, and I would trade Vaak unless for an elite young forward. Vaak is absolutely fantastic and could be a cornerstone defensive player for over a decade, but we already have a couple of guys that can play that role for us, but Pasta is our only young core forward at the moment, with Debrusk perhaps getting close. I would be alright with a top 6 consisting of something like Lauzon-McAvoy Krug-Carlo Gryz-Axel at some point.

 

[Malt]

Shhh...don't tell anyone. Colby Cave is on waivers.

 

[Saxon Eric]

Shhh...don't tell anyone. Colby Cave is on waivers.

I think he'll clear

 

[Tbrady12]

This is pretty strange timing. Nordstrom two weeks away and currently 8 d on the roster, so this wasn't necessary. Makes you think something else is coming.

Wouldn't be shocked it Edmonton grabs Cave and gives him a chance to head home. I don't think he clears.

 

[MillerTime86]

I think he'll clear

I agree.

 

[BruinsBtn]

Shhh...don't tell anyone. Colby Cave is on waivers.

I really like Cave. I feel he was snakebitten on offense a bit and could have had 5-6 goals easy. If there's a smart GM out there he will get picked up but I hope he clears in case there's an injury.

 

[GoBs]

Moore should have told Cassidy I’ll Play the left let Gryz play his off side

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Halverson

FYI, WAS reassigned today back to Portland

 

[bruinmann77]

Cave picked up by EDM

 

[chizzler]

I think he'll clear

Nope.

Frederic isn’t ready. Vac is really good. Those two should not be traded.
