@JeffNYI is gonna love him

 

[The don godfather]

I can’t see Krejci going to Seattle but for some reason my gut feeling says either Florida or finishing things out back home.

I say dk has a nice playoff signs 2 yr extension maybe like a 4 aav a year.

Playoffs?

Pasta has ways to go

He needs to play better. And score some goals

Get some other guys that can score here and he’ll start putting the puck in the net again. He looked good when he first came back the team was playing well, less pressure on him to score.

Gotta grab Garland. Good for the future and the now.

 

[Bmessy]

check out this shot heat map from the Penguins game. Obviously one of our worst games but geez someone drive the f***ing net. if no one wants to then get people who will. Vast majority of our losses have no action in front of the net. Surprise, surprise ours wins do.

Wanna bet ? We making in fact I think we give 3rd place for a run. Book it.

Carlo is week to week. Rask is a mystery. Halak showed he’s not taking you anywhere remotely close to a SCF.

SELL. SELL. SELL.

 

[KlausJopling]

Can’t imagine they go with rentals with the questions regarding Rask and Carlo’s health.

SELL. SELL. SELL.

Yep, that’s it for me. I’ve been in the “hold your nose and buy cause you have to and this is just the bed we’ve made” but with those two updates, I’m out. Sucks you won’t get max return because of cap situations, expansion, etc. but it is what it is.

The unforgivable piece is to not learn from your past mistakes and let UFAs walk in non-contending years like Loui, Soderberg, etc.

I’d love to see him sell expiring contracts but I can’t see them selling at all. I think this just gives him more reason to do nothing.

Maybe he grabs someone with some term, or RFA so he can be adding for future.

If we add Garland do we have the off season cap to sign him? He’s probably getting what 6 or 7?

16-17 Backes-Krejci-Spooner
17-18 DeBrusk-Krejci-Spooner
18-19 DeBrusk-Krejci-Heinen
19-20 DeBrusk-Krejci-Kuhlman
20-21 Smith-Krejci-Ritchie

Those wingers are a joke

18-19 was Krejci's most productive season 5 on 5 (47pts) since 2013-2014 (44 pts). He also played with Marchand and Pastrnak that season so that skews the numbers a bit.

They won’t do it because they’re sackless, but all UFA’s should be dealt. I’d entertain offers for a guy like Ritchie as well. SJS got a 1st for Goodrow from TBL. Ritchie is having his best season and he’s dangerous to re-sign. Imagine capatilizing on him and getting a decent prospect and a late first or second?

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

THEN, I fire all the idiots and bring in legit outside hockey minds to get this team going.

Ritchie is really interesting cause he’s cheap. Krejci you’re sadly going to have little to no market for cause of the money, even retaining half. Just difficult for teams to squeeze him in. Ritchie on the other hand, you can create a market for.

Agreed. Ritchie is putting up points because he’s received so much power play time with Bergeron, Marchand and Pastrnak and because he’s in a contract year. Whichever team signs him will regret it, IMHO. Sell high on him. Sweeney should also unload Krejci and Kuraly for whatever he can get. I would add Rask to the list, but his injury probably precludes a trade.

 

[Tbaybruin]

Can’t we buy and sell? If Rask is healthy by the dead line I trade Halak, Krejci, Kuraly. Use the picks or young guys as part of a deal for Garland\ Keller. If Bergeron,Krejci,Coyle isn’t working now it sure won’t when they are a year older.

Garland is an RFA with arbitration eligibility. Unless you are trying to lock him up for the 8 year maximum, he is in the same boat as DeBrusk was last offseason. Little to no leverage.

I don’t know with Krejci. What’s his prorated number going to be? I’m not a cap guy and never will be; reason #84849484738488595847 why I’d never be an NHL GM besides in a video game (I build winners btw, just saying).

I could see a team giving up some solid assets for a player like him with his postseason pedigree.

f*** that I always buy unless I'm way out of the playoffs

Back of the napkin here but I think even retaining half, you’re looking at Minny, Florida, Carolina, and Nashville as teams in playoff spots that could take him on prorated at the deadline.

Tinordi has been a nice pick up and can hold carlo spot for a bit. Need a scorer and we in business.

I’d flip Tinordi at the TDL for a 3rd or 4th. He’s shown he could provide depth for a contender I feel. Another player who could turn into a nice investment like Ritchie.

I’m on the sell train, 100% now.

If they traded him today, the acquiring team would be responsible for $2.25 million of his cap hit.

I will teach you how to figure it out this one time only.

Go to CapFriendly and the Bruins page. (or you could hack into my computer if you wish).

Boston Bruins - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

Near the top of the page, click on "daily cap tracker"

You will see a column named "ACCUM. HIT". That is his cap hit to date and what it has cost the Bruins.

Subtract that total from his "CAP HIT" and that is what an acquiring team is responsible for.

But CapFriendly does all the math for you, so no need to do all that LOL

Go to CapFriendly's main page CapFriendly - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

The number shown under "CURRENT CAP SPACE" is the total value of cap hit that can be added today. In other words, anyone who has more than $7.250,000 in cap space or LTIR space can add David Krejci.

if you're dealing Halak, are you comfortable with Vladar as your default starter without activating Booth?
