There's also Bournival who is still alive.....and you forgot Briere
Another trade coming.....wait an hour to do this thread!

Think Bourque is gone!!

 

[Fazkovsky]

Vanek fixes everything.

Pacio-DD

Gally-Plekanec-Vanek is absolutely amazing

 

[Et le But]

Vanek-Plekanec-Gionta

We are a grinding team after all.

Where's Briere, Bournival & Bourque? In the pressbox? No love for the B's

 

[Dripper]

Vanek-Plekanec-Brière

[Habskrieg]

Brière and Vanek are old teammates ...

 

[Winter Eclipse]

Vanek-Plekanec-Gionta

Prust-Galchenyuk-Weise
Moen-White-Parros

We are a grinding team after all.

I saw everyone posting Vanek-Plekanec-Galchenyuk and got crazy excited...

...then this post reminded me who our coach is, and how the lines will likely look

 

[Hannibal]

We have too many fowards now!

 

[SnapVirus]

Galchenyuk - Plekanec - Vanek
Pacioretty - DD - Gallagher
Bourque - Eller - Gionta
Prust - White - Weise - Moen - Brière - Bournival - Parros.

Some players will be sad.

 

[Lebowski]

Man, Plekanec will have an all-star caliber winger for the first time since... Kovalev?

 

[danyhabsfan]

Let's roll 4 scoring lines

Bournival Brière on on the 4th line with Prust/Moen/Weise

We have too many fowards now!

I'm surprised we didn't trade some of our bottom 6 forwards. It's just ridiculous. I guess Bournival could be sent down in Hamilton, even if he was told to get an apartment in Montreal.

And how does Vanek fits under the cap? Did NY kept part of his salary?

As for the line up, as long as we have Vanek-Plekanec-Galchenyuk and Pacioretty-Desharnais-Gallagher, I don't care about the rest.

Vanek is a RWer guys, cmon:

Pacioretty - DD - Vanek
Bournival/Bourque - Plekanec - Gionta
Galchenyuk - Eller - Gallagher
Prust - Briere - Weise

Markov - Subban
Gorges - Emelin
Murray - Weaver
Tinordi

[Rosso Scuderia]

Galchenyuk-Plekanec-Vanek
Pacioretty-DD-Gallagher
Briere-Eller-Gionta

 

[JayKing]

damn I was trying to make line combos and just remembered we have Briere

so many forwards

 

[InSaNeQT]

Briere Plekanek Vanek
MaxPac DD Gallagher
Galchenyuk Eller Gionta
Prust Moen Weise
Bourque White Bournival

 

[HabsRockBruinsChoke]

This is why during the off season we need to work on setting up appropriate bottom 6 forwards instead of filling the top 12 with a bunch of 2nd liners.. its expensive and ineffective.

Vanek is a RWer guys, cmon:

Pacioretty - DD - Vanek

Worst line up ever.

How can you trade for Vanek and SOMEHOW still have Plekanec with the same set of crappy wingers?

Why take Gallagher off the DD line?

Makes no sense.

 

[Jee]

Vanek - Plekanec - Gionta
Pacioretty - Desharnais - Brière
Galchenyuk - Eller - Gallagher
Weise - White - Parros

 

[Video Coach]

Briere - Plekanec - Vanek
Pacioretty - Desharnais - Gallagher
Galchenyuk - Eller - Gionta
Prust - White - Moen

Gorges - Subban
Markov - Emelin
Murray - Tinordi

Lots of options in the playoffs, subbing in Weise, Bourque, Bournival, Weaver, Beaulieu...

Move Moen up in Galchenyuk's spot when protecting a late lead.

Vanek is a RWer guys, cmon:

He's right handed, but not a right winger. He actually played both wings in his career. Playing on the LW allows him to get a better angle on his shots.

Playoffs line up (Based on experience and who really shines during the post season):

Pacioretty - Briere - Vanek
Galchenyuk - Plekanec - Gallagher
Bourque - Desharnais - Gionta
