Boston Bruins II-Rumors, Trade Proposals, Speculation, etc.. (rumors must have recognized source/link)

My first reaction was they should be doing that every year
My second reaction was you're asking a lot of the player to walk into this lineup
My third reaction was who do you have in mind?

Not a free agent but Peter Cehlarik is having a decent season in the SHL?

 

[DominicT]

Did I miss something? John Moore, last I checked, is still injured.

But don’t let facts get in the way of a stupid take.

Check the injury thread. He was back a week ago.

1) Yes. But in this COVID season things are different with a lot of NA playing over there and the waivers changed for European free agents for this year.

2) Maybe. But a lot of them have been playing since November and are in season form. I think there are a few that could have come in and done more than Anton Blidh or Karson Kuhlman

3) No on in particular. I'm still looking.

Suggesting to trade Vaakanainen seems risky to me considering he doesn’t need protection against Seattle and as it stands right now it looks like will be losing a LD.

Unless I’ve missed a name I haven’t heard anyone that’s a available that actually moves the needle, yes that doesn’t mean a hockey trade can’t happen and if it does we better be getting the quarter for a change.

Maybe ask Reed Duthie. Doesn’t he know everything European?

 

[aguineapig]

I'm sure there is one or two.

I will leave the research up to someone else to do.

Miro Satan or Mats Naslund ?

Miro Satan or Mats Naslund ?

 

[kthx]

I would've really liked Lehtonen here. If we didn't try to get him I fear that we might not be able to sign any other European players either.

 

[aguineapig]

Everyone slammed Harry for Naslund, but he did put up 22 pts in 34 games after 4 years back in Europe.
My shoes do shuffle around every time I remember Miro the Hero though.

Mikko Lehtonen for Toronto? He wasn’t really much of a need. I don’t really understand your post.

Can you sign draft eligible Euros?

 

[PlayMakers]

I like the Euro free agent idea.

What about Dmitrij Jaskin? He was MVP of the KHL last year. Big, power winger. He stuck with STL for 3 or 4 years and was a pretty industrious player, (200 hits in an NHL season). If he's figured out the offensive side of the game he could be something... and Krejci seems to fit well with other Czech's.

Honestly Eric, without the new CBA, I don't know what/if there are any changes, especially this year.

I don't know what the rules are with undrafted CHL players now under the new CBA a la Keyser.

Point is there are some interesting players in Europe. I'm sure PJ has his eyes open.

 

[Absurdity]

Julius Nättinen? PPG player in the Swiss league.

Oskar Kvist LW Brynas 6-4 203 is a 2001

Just out of curiosity, what is tour faith level in PJ?

He has room for improvement

 

[bbfan419]

I would gamble on him, there was also a Russian kid that put up good number in the OHL, Gogolev or something like that.

Dom do you or Reed and have contacts with the Bruins? Maybe send some of this info Sweeney's way.

Some of their analytics people follow me on twitter. Most of their NA scouts on LinkedIn. And one person here on HF. They know my thoughts.
