Yeah, protect Carlo for sure. Losing Grz is awful (way worse than losing C. Miller IMO), but we do have a particularly strong LD prospect pool.Krug Carlo McAvoy
Lose one of Gryz, Clifton, Moore.
Vaak takes a step forward and takes Gryz role. Easy, no deals with Seattle. Vegas built their team off their deals teams made to protect others, suck it up and lose 1 good young D and move on.
I truly appreciate and like Grizz but I`m not on the same side of many here who think his absence would be a massive loss, just think the B`s have the depth to move on from him if they were to lose him in expansion draft.Yeah, protect Carlo for sure.

Just looking at the expansion draft LOL at Vegas not having to give up a player when they're Cup favorites this year. Even when they aren't involved the expansion draft benefits them.
If Krug does resign, the Seattle draft means the B's are going to lose one of : Carlo, Grizz, Clifton. Which of those three should they retain with McAvoy and Krug?
carlo, and it’s not particularly close
Sounds like he will sign
Bruins know they have to be at $6 something minimum
Bruins know they have to be at atleast 5 years and realize Krug will want 7 so 6 is logical
Bruins know if they are getting a home town discount because he wants to remain a Bruins NMC has to be all the way thru
I have been on the "I guess we have to let Krug walk" train. But the idea of being able to have him back at a number we can afford makes me giddy.
same same same. Would love it...but at the same time, I’d also love to see Torey Krug net 8-9 million on a long term deal and set his family up for life. Very few, if anyone, deserves it more

I just don’t understand the “let krug be your rental” crowd. After seeing what Faulk got the Hurricanes. You either need to trade krug or sign him to an extension. Those are really the only two option. Considering how the season starts tonight, the option to trade him seems very remote if you consider the fact teams who will be trying to acquire krug through trade will also be contenders. So they likely will be avoiding giving up impact players during the season. Any team out of contention will not be trading for Krug because he will just walk and it will be useless.
Bruins have really backed themselves up against a wall right now and Krug holds every ounce of leverage right now. Be prepared for the overpay, it’s coming.
If management let’s him walk that will be a massive misstep by them.
The Faulk return sucked.
Edmondson is a $3.1 mill 4-5 D. Bokk is a good not great prospect and they swapped a 5th for a 7th
Yeah, let's trade a dollar for 2 quarters
I don't know how much you need to set your family up for life in the USofA, but after taxes, escrow, agent fees. TK47 has netted about $13 million. Isn't that enough to set your family up for life?
That said, I agree with you (for a change). Would love to see TK47 get his payday.
A universe where making $6.5 million a year on a long term is not setting your family up for life so well is one that I have no familiarity with
13 mil over an 85 year old life is 150k a year Mr. T. Across two parents and a child that’s not bad, not great..but certainly not setting up that new baby girl to not have to work!
Bokk was ranked 50th and just outside the top 50 on two separate Athletic prospect ranks and edmunson has averaged 20 minutes per game the last two years while playing lock down defense.
Bokk would instantly be the best prospect in the bruins system and acquiring a 2nd pairing defender with it. That’s a great deal for the hurricanes.
I am literally stunned anyone can think that return sucked. A future top line player and a second pairing D for Justin Faulk....
Fair.
BUT
He is not finished earning yet has he. That is what he has earned to date. Doesn't even include this season
It took you longer then that to say h-h-h-hiI talked to Torey at a bar one time for 2 seconds so I consider him a very close family friend and I want him to get 15 million.
That’s only true assuming it was stuffed in a mattress. Even very safely invested, it’s quite enough. Invested with average risk tolerance it’s still enough to keep him, and his family, in the top 1%.13 mil over an 85 year old life is 150k a year Mr. T.

Do you trade Chara too then?
Bergeron’s 34, probably never going to be more valuable than he is today. Have to consider that as well if you’re not worried about winning a cup.
Wtf are you even talking about. Did you quote the wrong post because nothing of what you said has anything to do with what I said.
No. You seem to be very interested in getting max value for assets, hence wanting to trade Krug for a Faulk like return.
so I’m asking: What do we do with Chara and Bergeron if we’re in “get value for assets” and not “ice the best team possible to win a Stanley cup” mode
