Line Combos: Roster overhaul in order?

[BruinsFanSince94]

I'm gonna be the wet blanket...

I (and most others) was of the mindset that one of Krug or Grzelcyk was going to be dealt this offseason. My opinion was that the obvious move was the latter option.

Looks like we're moving Krug now and mark my words... That's gonna hurt.

I don't want to turn it into THAT thread. This one should be about Grzelcyk and how impressive he was during the season (he was excellent) and how he earned the extension (he absolutely did). He's a good kid and I like him a lot.

I would not have have signed him.

Seeing this seems like our trade/offseason thread (or at least for now, discussion) and you didn't want to turn the Grzelcyk thread into that, I thought it'd be "ok" to take this here and touch on it. He was an RFA so why wouldn't you have signed him? Couldn't you say locking him in only gives him more value in a trade? After this contract is up, he'll still be under team control as an RFA. He's at a solid price. I'm not seeing the relation with this one. I don't think Boston moves Krug unless they're wowed by an offer. They like him a lot.

Krug is an injury list...... what team will take him knowing he's likely out half of next season, if not longer than that.... Carlo, we survived that injury hit, and he's back to at least start camp....

Where are you seeing Krug being out for likely half the season?

you obviously missed the incident against Tampa

Ah baseless speculation, my favorite!

Is there an online decoder for these posts???

Do you have a crystal ball as well? He broke an ankle. Last time I checked depending on the severity of the injury, it's usually 6-8 weeks recovery time:

Ankle Fractures (Broken Ankle) - OrthoInfo - AAOS

On face value Carlo's injury actually looked worse. It's highly doubtful that Krug will miss half a season or longer for that injury

and who was it that missed 3 months, Chief.... Carlo is 1, Backes is 2, that never started/finished 2018 on time

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Krug broke his ankle the beginning of May.

June = 1 Full Month
July = 2 Full Months
August = 3 Full Months
September = 4 Full Months
October = 5 Full Months

But yes...He's likely missing half the season. Dear Lord.

I really need that decoder...

Let's break this down:

1) Krug got injured on May 4th

Bruins' Torey Krug Suffers Apparent Ankle Injury In Third Period Of Game 4 Vs. Lightning

2) 6 weeks from that date is (wait for it)

YESTERDAY

3) He's more than likely gonna be ready for camp in September which is roughly another 12 weeks away.

4) He'll be fine

Can you please put this into a sentence that I (and likely everyone else) can understand? I'm really trying but you're not making sense here

how many times have we seen it posted that when are players are skating, how do you positively can know, in other words, to put it BLUNTLY... THAT Either Carlo or Krug ARE CLEARED TO PRACTICE, much less participate in any drills

If HE wants to skate ice on WEDNESDAY then he should be driving there at the END of the season. Hutch

I’m playing ‘doubting Thomas’ in the HF Production ‘It Happens Every Easter’ when it comes to Backes & Krejci

A. Being moved
B. Was ever discussed

If it is then I’m guessing Cam is back being Art Garfunkel to Don’s Paul Simon.

 

[DKH]

Im going to have to admit im wrong about backes. For a few years i thought he would be the perfect winger for bergeron. I was certain hed be a better winger then center

But i just no longer feel he can be a top 6 winger.

I dont know what the resistence to using him at center is... but if we lose riley nash i think we have to try backes at center.

Even if jfk makes the team... id be in favor him at rw and backes at center

My first hope is sign riley... or jumbo joe... or tavares... trade for lindholm or staal... but all that fails, then i want backes at center

JFK is a center - I’ve seen him a bunch and not once did I think wing.

He’s as natural a center as they have in that system.

Lol. I GUESS so

 

[chizzler]

There is a concern with Krug. He is hurt. It’s no small injury. I haven’t seen any news on him since. Has any one?

NO updates but apparently some ONE thinks that it's an ankle transplantectomy. Garsh, I hope Torey survives it ! LOL
