Fenway, 6 of us went out last night to dinner and we have well over 100 years of Bruins season tickets combined and the consensus was Jimmy Vesey did not get to marry the girl of his dreams but one of those arranged type marriages.
Vesey plays well he should be in a good spot in 2 years as attrition and age thins out the Rags a bit and they have a group of Stefan Miller Kreider Hayes Zino and a few others to be solid.
The Rangers have been going for it and zero first rounders in last 4 years and trading away too prospects to win like DuClair
I watched Gorton destroy the farm and prospects like he was bailing out
so Vesey is a great add
Vesey would have been a great signing for Boston but at least next to defense that is their strongest area prospect wise (can I say that or am I supposed to droll as I scream 'Sweeney hasn't done anything with the defense')
Peter Fish never wanted this kid here and as the agent of Frank Vatrano as well a direct competitor I have no idea if that factored in or not but regardless with the help of Kevin Hayes they finally got Vesey to say I Will go somewhere else.
I'm not sure this is how Vesey drew it up but it's over. He at least gets to go to Boston south where know one will recognize him on the street, he's a quick plane ride home, and Kreider and Hayes know all the twists and turns of the city and make his transition likely seem less
What an insane story
