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

Leafs probably give them a first and nylander. Bruins can’t compete with that offer :p

Don't agree, if we are comparing inconsistencies then Nylander is not much better than DeBrusk. Willy does not bring his game every night, is well known for shying away from the physical game, and is just as if not more of an enigma than DeBrusk. DeBrusk gives you more on the wing than Nylander does at the center. He can put up more points than Jake, but only when he feels like it. Jake to me is a harder worker and a more consistent presence on the wing.

Yeah, take a moment and chuckle.

But ask any Toronto fan, they would take DeBrusk in a heartbeat. The entire fanbase has been arguing Nylander for so long that it's irreconcilable between the good and the bad. Either he is a good player that needs consistency or he is useless and needs to go for anyone now. More so than how we are with DeBrusk.

Pastrnak is “overrated”?

What planet am I living on

 

[Gee Wally]

Mazz is a putz.

 

[MarchysNoseKnows]

How many players would teams turn down a one for one for Pasta for? McDavid, Matthews, Mackinnon. Hedman. Makar. Not sure how many others would say no.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Forsberg & Ekholm

DeBrusk Studnicka Zboril 1st

Debrusk, Grezlyk, Vaakaneinen, B prospect??

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Um Pasta is over a PPG player in the Playoffs. He had 10 points in 10 games last year, 19 in 24 the year before, and 20 in 12 the year before that.

This would be the type of calls that donkie radio get. Uninformed blowhards on both sides of the mic. (the post you replied to, not you)

It's a really short list. Maybe Draisaitl could be on there. Now, how many players can you name that people would do a one for one for Carlo, and there's the answer. To suggest keeping Carlo over Pasta and that Pasta is overrated is just criminal ignorance and there should be prison time attached to a take like that.

I could argue that debrusks contract is better and easier to move. Nyla fee is grossly over paid. Nylander has a higher upside. But I wouldn’t want his contract. I don’t think the bruins are looking to move debrusk. Just fans want to move him. He is underrated around here IMO. He is a solid winger. Young too. I think bruins might offer their first for ekholm and maybe a prospect. But contenders don’t generally move key roster pieces during the season. Leafs might consider themselves contenders. But I think their defence is too bad to win the cup. I think their division is traSh. They desperately need another top 4 guy. They might just pay more then Boston to get one. Seeing as Boston doesn’t really need one. Ekholms a nice add though. Essentially a huge upgrade on gryz. Gryz might get traded if the bruins add ekholm. Gryz probably gets the bruins a couple draft picks to compensate for losing their first to get ekholm. But again I feel like a team like the leafs will be willing to pay a lot more then the bruins. Unless Nashville really likes one of our prospects then I doubt bruins get him.

Maybe the Hall talk can end now?

 

[Oates2Neely]

Debrusk, Grezlyk, Vaakaneinen, B prospect??

Doubt Forsberg would be moved. He’s on a great contract. Ekholm is intriguing. Still hope Sweeney can land a top-6 wing

 

[Oates2Neely]

Says a lot about Hall. I don’t see that franchise competing anytime soon.

 

[JRull86]

Hall is an effing loser

 

[Dizzay]

This will be popular:

Bruins have had how many come from behind 3rd period wins? 4? 5?

We in reality should be middle of the pack right now when you look at how we won plus team production! Those saying we're good as is are insane!

We need a legit top 6 forward, a top 6 forward, and maybe a top 9 forward.

Debrusk, bjork,kase need to be moved
Gryz Moore need to be moved

Move those 5 guys, plus picks and manage to get two players, success

I definitely don’t agree DeBrusk NEEDS to be moved.

How do we get brock boesar ? Bjork and debrusk ?

Guy is top 3 in the league in goals. We had our chance #2015

 

[Gordoff]

So on Felger and Mazz right now, they're discussing trading for Crosby. Mazz said he would keep Carlo over Pasta, and that Pasta is WAY OVERRATED! The B's will never win a cup with Pasta because he doesn't play tough in the corners. WTF! They sound like a bunch of noob's

Mazz is a shit-4-brains. Boston Sports radio is 88% Patriots, 10% Red Sox, 2% everything else.
WBZ has the "Saturday Morning Hockey Show" which features Maria from Watertown as their "expert." Their people are woefully ignorant re hockey and the Bruins.

 

[Gordoff]

Maybe not but that old regime didnt sign Beleskey and Backes, Trade for Jimmy Hayes and pass on Matt Barzal, That was these guys........And this regime did not Steal Rask, draft Marchand and Pasta.....That was the old regime. Oh and that Cup....That was the old regime also.....Sorry....No comparison.

OUCH!

 

[RoccoF14]

Forsberg has 1 year remaining on his current deal @$6mil cap hit. Nashville is cooked and it wouldn’t surprise me if they go full rebuild. He can be acquired, but he won’t come cheap.

Forsberg is a player I’d be willing to overpay for to try to acquire. He’d be a perfect fit.

 

[The don godfather]

Honestly donny should have signed krug for that 6 million and moved some dead cap out like Moore maybe wags and signing millar for league minimum.

 

[Gordoff]

Hall is toast - there will be a Netflix series down the line how he caught some mysterious virus from Jeff Skinner that turned him into Par Lindholm.

I find it odd DeBrusk sat next to Lindholm and he hasn’t scored either and now no one can even get ahold of Lindholm to look into this / he’s not even on the roster

imagine paying $18 M for Skinner and Hall and getting 0 production

Hall sold out a chance at a Cup for the big-bux and Skinner is a never was. I'm So f*cking glad the Bruins didn't look to sign JS when the lost out on Tavares.

I hope Palmieri was showcasing himself for the B's and Donny bites.

3 years ago, I would have agreed with you, but not any more.

Palmieri’s best days are long gone.

 

[Gordoff]

Even with Palmieri not having a goal so far? Perhaps the asking price will go down?

Welp, the Bruins fixed that now didn't they!?!?
