Proposal: Winnipeg - Boston

[Sevendust]

Stanley and a fourth round pick for Grzelcyk


Winnipeg gets an puck moving defenseman who idealy is played on third line and is and is an UFA after this season. This gives them depth for the playoffs.

Boston is getting a defenseman who had some rough seasons the last two years and asked for a trade in the offseason. Still they do this because there is a need for an stay at home defenseman on the third line.

I don’t know who Stanley is but I can say that it’s probably a bad deal for Winnipeg

don't see winnipeg being interested in this at all, would rather use cap space on someone that will get into the lineup

I'd rather just keep Stanley, he already knows the system and can step in with injuries - same role we would use gryz for

 

[Maukkis]

Would be a tremendous deal for us (disregarding the fact that it would be a depth addition, hilariously), but I fail to see what this achieves for the Bruins.

Parther Wotherspoon has been like found money for Sweeney and Forbort is back playing again so there's not much need for another 3rd pairing LD at the moment.

I'm not sure what the plan is with Grz, who hasn't been as good as he normally is during the regular season. They could keep him for more depth and let him walk in the offseason, which I'm fine with.

The past two seasons, the Bruins have injected size/reach upgrades at the trade deadline to try and shelter Grz in the playoffs. Whether or not that's the plan again is unknown but the upgrade would be for the top pairing, which Stanley is far from being.

 

[BronxBruin]

Do the Bruins really need Stanley when they already have Carlo and Forbort? Seems pretty redundant.

 

[SPV]

I’m in for it. Change it to a fifth if need be.

 

[Eddie Munson]

Even if the Bruins think Lohrei is ready, I’m just not seeing a need for a depth D for depth D move. Doesn’t really move the needle for the Bruins IMO.

 

[han316]

Think the Jets would say no just due to cap space.

 

[Jared Dunn]

Bruins can probably get a bit better value for him and doesn't seem like a wise use of Winnipeg's cap space

 

[Digital Kid]

Jets need offence, not defence.

 

[Snowman]

There's no incentive for Winnipeg to get more expensive and not improve.

 

[CanMerc]

Makes zero sense for the Jets to add cap for an ”in case of injury” player
