Too bad that cuts out the first part with Eichel going down the other end and throwing off a wild back hand that McDavid picks up
RS18 game winning goal? 21 on the season. terrible trade but understandable.

You think , will be right up there with the many terrible trades this team makes. RS18 sucks so it doesn't matter some will say
Hayes was a good pick up for 2.3 mil for his goal every 10 games or so Not a very good summer for DS in regards to trades. BRUTLE
Looking forward to seeing if we can get another dime a dozen player like Hayes for Pasta this summer.
That's being kind

If you are going to say Sweeney was brutal, at least spell it right. At any rate, I disagree.
Sweeney dealt Smith for Hayes and also cleared Savard's contract. Smith (who I liked) looked like he was going through the motions, and then Chia gave him a sweetheart extension anyway. Hayes makes less and plays a lesser role with Boston than Smith has with FLA, and as someone pointed out, he's getting big minutes that he would not have gotten here.
The Lucic deal was a win. Sweeney turned one year of Lucic into two 1st round picks, Colin Miller, and Sean Kuraly. Then he replaced Lucic with Beleskey at a $2m discount.
The numbers look pretty damn close to me, and maybe even favor Beleskey (given the TOI)?
Lucic, $6m, 14/22/36, +12, 204 Hits, 15 BS, 15/38 (TA vs GA)
17:03 TOI (2:02 PP)
Beleskey, $3.8m 13/19/32, +15, 202 Hits, 35 BS 20/18 (TA vs GA)
15:44 TOI (1:05 PP)
Not to mention that Beleskey is locked up at that reasonable Cap hit for another 4 years. How much will Lucic re-sign for this summer? At least $6m, maybe more.
I will get flak for this I'm sure, but I think the Dougie deal will eventually be a win as well. B's take a short term hit, but the kid didn't want to be here. Turned him into a 1st and two 2nds, then took Senyshyn, JFK, and Lauzon. When those three are in the NHL contributing this deal will look like a steal for Boston. When Dougie was first drafted, I thought he could be the next big thing, but the last few years have shown that he may never be very good in the defensive end, and that he's not a #1 that you can build a D around. Certainly not worth his $5.75m Cap hit.
Sprinkle in a few FA rookie signings like Vatrano, Czarnik, Accari, and Cave and I thought the Don had a pretty productive summer? While I disagreed with the course of action he took at the deadline, I understood it. Not the end of the world because I thought he was going to be unable to get a Top 4 D at the deadline going in.
Mods feel free to move this to one of the multiple "Hang/Burn Sweeney" threads.

You're not alone.
I hit him up on facebook whenever them or their fans do something irritating.
I suspect he has an in-built radar in his brain anyway.
Agreed on all points. Not to mention Jimmy is signed for another year, whereas Reilly will want to cash in even more after next season. Hayes, Beleskey and Spooner have 26, 27 and 28 non-PP points respectively. He'll probably end up around 40 points, which is alright for a third liner with limited PP time (Beleskey has played with top 6 players quite a bit more, and almost 2 more minutes average per game, but I still like his game a lot). Smith might end up with 9-11 more points than Hayes, but he plays more minutes, with superior line mates, paid more, one year remaining on his contract, and took Savard's contract with him. Trying to draw this up as a huge loss for Boston is ridiculous.
It's delightfully poetic that wings fans are getting precious about bad penalty calls and interference on their game thread.
