Boston Bruins Grade the Bruins Deadline

[PacificNWBruin]

C grade for now. We’ll see how things play out and where MoJo actually ends up playing in the lineup.

 

[KrejciMVP]

NYQUIST USED HIS NTC

Horrible deal though. Nyquist much better

 

[BruinsFan37]

B-

Didn't overpay for Stone or worse yet Simmons. Even with Stone they're not getting past Tampa without a lot of puck luck (and if they have that they don't need Stone in the first place).

Coyle looks to be solid pickup and we get him for a year plus. Donato wasn't clicking in Boston for whatever reason.

Mojo might have been a slight overpayment but not going to lose any sleep over a late 2nd round pick.

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Team needed to make a bigger splash. A) To legitimately compete with Tampa B) Avoid STH's possibly fleeing if they don't make the Finals.

Is this a possibility? I'll jump in on them fleeing...Flee! Flee! I want ST lmfao

Are you ignoring the fact that NYQUIST WANTED TO GO TO SJ

 

[Blowfish]

Had to go big this year. Key Players not getting any younger. B- for me. I do like the Marcus and Charlie.

Sorry but your capital letters cant mask how they overpaid

 

[Friar85]

I'm not familiar with him. In fact, I'd never noticed him until Marchand laid him out. I'm hoping for the best, but I wanted Simmonds.

I can’t let this pass. You come on here and argue hockey issues and mock other’s positions and then you say basically that you don’t know who Johansson is? The guy has been a strong player in the league for a long time, played on Swedish junior and Olympic teams and has over 300 NHL points. But you only noticed him when Marchand elbowed him. Wow. I keep forgetting there is no minimum knowledge requirement for this place.

Ah typical, KrejciMVP..... Proven wrong, so he will counter with another argument. Find a new slant.

Funny isn't it? Gives Sweeney an "F" but doesn't even know players he's acquired. It's just obvious trolling. Timeouts weren't enough.....Lets take the next step, here.

Stop countering responses with off-topic arguments because you're incapable of debating.

2nd round 2020

In

Charlie Coyle
Marcus Johansson


I think that's a B grade. Maybe B-

The third line has been completely revamped. Depth scoring has been given a good boost, as well as size. The 4th line can go back to playing regular 4th line minutes.

I agree B/B-

I think Stone was the best fit but wasn't worth the cost for a rental when Vegas was bidding for a signed player... We didn't kill the farm and got better. People on here want the best players with minimal impact on the future which isn't going to happen.

Say what you want about trades. The grade button is above. I dont care what your grade is tbh (I assume its A+)

 

[Prince Pasta]

I did a C+, Addressed a big need (3rd Center) and didnt give up their 1st but would have liked another righty.

We got better, just don't think we got better enough.

But more than capable of taking extremely negative positions on everything

"Basically paid the same as Nyquist. Just horrible"

Ignores the fact that Nyquist had a NTC and wanted to go to SJ.

"Horrible deal though. Nyquist much better"

Continues to ignore the fact that Nyquist has a NTC and wanted to go to SJ. Just wants to whine about a deal even though he's not taking into consideration FACTS like a NTC.



Gets called out on it and changes the argument.... Shocker!!

 

[Troublesome 85]

C-

Team needed a 3C and a 2RW got neither got 2 3rd liners. For what Nash paid for Simmonds wish the Bruins jumped on him

If you want a board that's all positive and pro sweeney what would be the point of a message board. A take is a take. Stop stressing about it

Nyquist was not coming here. Last game he played was against the Sharks and after the game, they took him out to dinner and basically woo'ed him. It also helped that he's BFF with Karlsson. Full NTC on his contract so when it came down to choosing Boston or San Jose, it was an easy choice for him. Detroit might have liked our deal better for all we know, but Nyquist held all the cards.

I'm not planning a parade adding Coyle and Johansson.

 

[Spooner st]

It will all depend on how they will,perform.

For now I'll give a D.

Sweeny left better options on the table, besides Stone.

Better options like? Nyquist used his NTC. Simmonds is a worse player than MoJo and went for the equivalent of Heinen and a pick. Hayes went for a 1st.

B actually.... I take into consideration everything instead of needing to whine and piss on everything.

Being a is still being a and that's what you live to do on here. It's hard to take you seriously when you're consistently come off as a baseless whiner.
