Sweeney should have Stevie Y on Speed dial

Debrusk for Mantha?

 

[Ratty]

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

Lesson of the day: check roster news first.

 

[wintersej]

With 10+ million in projected cap space at the deadline, and both Rask and Krejci potentially leaving. I won't forgive the front office if they don't shove all the chips in on a Taylor Hall type at the deadline.

I was all on the Hall train in the offseason. Really hate the look of him going to a loser team to pad stats to try to get more $$$. Way less interested.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

we need a 2nd line rw. because bruce will never break up the perfection line.

palmieri boeser laine and arvedsson would be good for krejci

 

[Mick Riddleton]

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

I mentioned him last year, I put up a video of his scoring prowess in the OHL. He is in Sweden now and only signed for the year there. So maybe they bring him in as an invite at camp.

Hooooo, absolutely, go hard, the great prototype big skill guy...maybe he wants out enough loosing and loosing!

Who says he wants out? He's a big part of the Red Wings rebuild. So he violated a rule and the coach sat him out to set an example. Holy overreaction, Batman!

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Sweeney missed the boat on Toffoli. 10 games played 9 goals. He is on fire. 4.25m cap hit. 28 years old. He would’ve looked nice alongside Krejci

Bruins are not playing Vancouver.

Toffoli:

-Against Vancouver: 8 goals in 5 games
-Against other teams: 1 goal in 7 games

Lazy and benched multiple times in his young career because of it.

Not interested. At all.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Debrusk for Mantha?

More than that... Debrusk Vaakaneinen maybe Keyser

 

[tonino2424]

I still say DeBrusk for Tuch

Marchy----Bergy----Pasta
Ritchie----Krejci----Tuck
Bjork-----Coyle-----Smith
Fredi-----Kuraly----Wagner

Krej gets his new Lucic and Horton big bodies, no i am not comparing the new linemates in scoring just in size. Looks good to me.

I keep going back to the scenario that Ritchie falls off a bit and isn’t a capable top 6 LW. Then what? You’ve reversed the situation you have been in with the RW on the left side.

This was the first thing I thought of when I read Mantha

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

Most teams in the NHL have had scouts in Providence on a very frequent basis, so I don’t think they’re being showcased. Those scouts already have quite a book on Lauzon and Zboril from watching like 200 games from them each in Providence. I think they’re playing in Boston because the Bruins have a plan that involves them.

Could that change? Sure, but I don’t think they’d move on from Chara and Krug only move one of those defenseman who are stepping up big time and filling those shoes.

AHL scouting reports vs actual NHL appearances probably has an effect on their value as well though. I don't doubt other teams have had a look, but now that they are actually doing it in the NHL means a lot more.

I wouldn't actively be shopping them, but you have to give to get. Moving Moore or some 4th liners isn't really going to bring back value.

Not advocating moving them for the sake of moving them, but ONE of them could be available in the right deal. Simply because they could be more coveted, and we have a John Moore to play the bottom pair if we need to.

I have no idea what the Bruins will do, but if I wasn't a Bruins fan, and I was interested in players to trade for from the Bruins, Zboril and Lauzon's name may come up.

 

[BruinsNetwork]

Sweeney should have Stevie Y on Speed dial

And then Sweeney should hang up the phone before Stevie Y not only fleeces him in a trade, but then steals his soul on the way out.

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

can we include John Moore in any of these trades. terrible signing by Sweeney.

Do we want to devalue the offer and start throwing more picks to move it?

 

[JOKER 192]

For DeBrusk? All day everyday.

 

[JOKER 192]

f*** that

Your trading a guy who was benched , that doesn't get you multiple pieces.

 

[JOKER 192]

You f***ed it up with Bjork on the 3rd line.

 

[JOKER 192]

As much as I have been tooting Ritchie's horn , that is a real possibility.

 

[JOKER 192]

This was the first thing I thought of when I read Mantha

If I played on that team ( and I imagine many others) I wouldn't be interested either. That's a chance I take. This is Anderson 2.0 waiting to happen.

 

[Blowfish]

Debrusk for Mantha?

Reasons I do this trade...

Always enjoyed stealing away a Quebequois from the habitants.

6 '5' 235 lbs

Proven goal scorer

Plays LW/RW


Mantha is a brilliant skater with great speed. He is a dangerous scorer with a very good shot and quick release, which he loves to use. Mantha has very good size and reach and knows how to hold on to the puck. While receiving criticism for insonsistancy, he has improved his defensive play and physicality. Once he adds some grit aggressiveness into his play, Mantha has the tools to become a solid top-six NHL forward. (Matias Strozyk, 2013)br>

Exactly!! Its been 11 games

Ritchie should not be penciled in just yet at the 2LW

 

[Blowfish]

From the players I was hoping bruins would pursue. So far I was very wrong with Duclair and Haula.

Grandlund 3 games 3 goals 3 assists

Hoffman 11 games 4 goals 3 assists

Haula 11 games 0 goals 4 assists

A Duclair 9 games 0 goals 6 assists
