Providence Bruins General Discussion thread IX

[Saxon Eric]

Terrible turnover by Zech
I take full responsibility for pumping his tires too much
4-1

i'm with you danny boy. NFW i trade vaak or studnicka (or beecher).
bruins have enough assets to figure out a RW upgrade without moving
guys who will be key roster pieces for 10 years.

lauzon or zboril goes. donny loves trading picks, too.

Exactly for me Vaak, Beecher, Studnicka and to a lesser degree Lauko are off limits right now, we have other prospects like: Frederic, Cehlarik, JFK, Lauzon, Zboril, Senyshen, Steen and Shen that can be packaged in deals, also I would deal Grizz for help at top 6 F before I trade our best prospects.

The thing about Hall is...it's like a 50/50 shot he has a major injury between now and the playoffs.

Also, the Bruins don't NEED another #1LW to compete.

They NEED a competitive, reliable #2RW...or at least a right-shot C with versatility.

Save your assets on Hall.

Spend less on a RW or a Righ handed C who can play wing.

Here are some options that could be had for less.

JG Pageau (UFA - $3.1M) imagine him with Bergeron and Marchand.
Mikael Granlund (1UFA - $5.75M)
Craig Smith (1UFA - $4.25M)
Kyle Palmieri (2UFA - $$4.65M)
Josh Andersen (1RFA -$1.85M)
Brandon Saad (2UFA - $6m)

Agree would rather add a couple good players Palmieri, Tuch?, Anderson, Pageau, Lindholm? If we could get 2 guys from this I would much rather that to Hall.

Loss
Better team won
Still 4 out of 6 points
Game Wednesday vs Syracuse at home
Now we wait on info for Lauko and see if Kampfer clears

 

[Blowfish]

After 2
Hartford 3
Providence 1

Effort is there,Hartford keeps punishing our mistakes
Points haven't been there but Hughes playing well
Points haven't been there but Steen isn't playing well
Looking forward to adding Blidh Senyshyn and possibly Kuhlman to the lineup

Steen is somewhat surprising. I wasn't all that impressed with him during prospects game.

Is it a matter of playing it safe knowing his future isn't 2020 but most likely 2021 2022?

He had a good camp but the sugar high has worn off,he's not consistent enough night after night,season is a grind and I need to see more from him

Think a big part is North America schedule vs European schedule, not playing anywhere near as aggressive as in pre season. It will probably take a couple seasons for Steen to get used to schedule and a more physical game.

So, Kampfer to join P-Bruins after clearing

So, Kampfer to join P-Bruins after clearing

I think that’s a good thing for the forwards and the left-shot D in Providence, depending on who sits. Kampfer should be a high-level player for that league and I think they could all benefit from that, to be honest. That group down there could use a bit of energy, that’s for sure.

A very good veteran add on the back end.

 

[Fenian24]

So how many vets do they have over the 260 games played rule. Gaunce, Petrovic. Kampfer, Carey, Didier and Breen. That's it isn't it. If so they should be fine with the veteran rule even when everybody is healthy. If they stay healthy they should be a very good team going forward

 

[Saxon Eric]

Add me to the list of those happy with Kampfer clearing

 

[Ratty]

Kampfer came through for the team last season when it had several injuries on D. He played well when called upon this year. Nice to know he's available again.

 

[KlausJopling]

Keyser healthy, sent to Atlanta

 

[KlausJopling]

He tried that move without slowing down

 

[PlayMakers]

He tried that move without slowing down

Wow!

What's the team going to look like up front once Senyshyn is returned and then one of Kuhlman/Lindholm/Ritchie are sent down? (after Kuhlman is cleared of course)

Frederic-Gaunce-Senyshyn could be a lot of fun if the opportunity presents itself. Although, I always liked Cehlarik-whichever center here-Senyshyn on the few occasions we’ve seen them together.

 

[Saxon Eric]

Assuming there's no trades
Carey Gaunce Senyshyn
Cehlarik Studnicka Kuhlman
Frederic Woods Lantosi
Lauko Hughes Fitzgerald

Shen,Koppanen Steen

Can’t say he’s not creative!

Like the start of the season..... Deep! (On paper)

 

[Blowfish]

Keyser healthy, sent to Atlanta

Something ain't right. Thought he would take the lead.

What do you mean, something ain't right?

 

[CDJ]

Koppanen is kinda producing

He’s 6’5”

Those are two pretty cool things

 

[Blowfish]

Thought he would be a mainstay based on the following...

keyser nips zach for #8. roman bychkov added to next round.
