98.5 The Sports Hub So Where Do Bruins Go From Here?

Best part of getting Pacioretty is he hates Montreal already

you beat me to it

Don’t want ex Canadiens.

Already have heard "Donnie Discount" and "Donnie Can't Close" from my wonderful co workers this am..

My reply to your coworkers:

Brad Marchand AAV $6,125,000
David Pastrnak AAV $6,666,666

Easily two of the best contracts in the league.

Pacioretty has played 10 seasons. He has played more than 64 games 5 years in those 10. Let that sink in for a moment. He has played 80 or more games 3 times in 10 years. Obviously one year was a shortened season and another was his rookie year, but still. He has never hit the 70 point mark. He has become a perimeter style player with no jam. He is coming off a rotten year. He has a questionable attitude. He will be 30 this November. He has had a double digit shooting pct only 5 seasons of his 10. He will want multiple years at good money. Screw that crap!

Having now had time to think about it, I guess Patches COULD take Schaller's spot on the fourth line....

I'd take Heinen, Debrusk, and Marchand over him in the top 9 any day of the week. Marchand is far worthier of respect as a player than Patches is. And Debrusk and Heinen both bring way more to the table as far as all rounded games go.

And also, neither of them are mere perimeter players

I try not to associate with them, plus it just makes me put their quotes on the bottom of my pile.

If they aren't in on Tavares, Sweeney needs to get himself a back-up goaltender early on July 1st before the game of back-up goalie musical chairs is over, then go for a long afternoon nap and let his fellow GMs make all the mistakes that day.

This is so much how I feel. JT is really the only player I'm really that interested in this year. Wouldn't have minded Kovi at the right price, but glad we didn't shell out big bucks AND term for him. I anticipate if the bruins don't get JT, they make a couple of small moves for depth, and not much else. At some point, the young kids have to either play or move on.
