Boston Bruins Your roster changes / proposals VII

[Mainehockey33]

I would do it:

marchand — Bergeron — pastrnak
Hall — Krejci — Kessel

That would make way more sense than Dvorak.

 

[Blowfish]

Well that wraps up a big chuck of our hopeful rumour de jours....

 

[BruinsBtn]

I don't think I wanted the Bruins to beat that. I'm not sold on Garland or OEL and it might have been costly to beat that. Schmidt will be on the market now for sure.

Arizona is sure cleaning house. Kessel has to be on the way out the door next.

 

[Troublesome 85]

Problem is, would he want to come back?

Anyplace is better than AZ

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Deadly top 6. Bet Arizona could retain a large portion as well.

DeBrusk + Dvorak

get them here. Sign suter, trade for ekholm

Marchand — Bergeron — Pastrnak
Hall — Krejci — Kessel
Dvorak — Coyle — Smith
Frederic — Lazar — Senyshyn

Ekholm — McAvoy
Suter — Carlo
Zboril — Clifton

Stop giving me hope!

Toast, hotdogs, beer...the thrill likes them all. Gyms and competing not so much.

And he still would be one of the fastest players on the team and would probably finish top 4 on the team in scoring...........

 

[Don Keedic]

43 pts in 56 games........toast

Untoasted toast

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Don't forget Gryz

Ah yes. Unless he’d go in a trade for someone.

 

[JerseyBruin]

That would make way more sense than Dvorak.

Big difference , one is 25 the other is 33 . Bruins need to go younger not older.

 

[Blowfish]

Anticlimactic!

 

[CellyHard]

Ekholm hits just as much as Gryz

He’s much less physical than Carlo

BUT HE’S 6-4!

Need to get nasty back there

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Same shit different year

 

[Silva]

Sweeney and His Bruins are awesome at finishing in 2nd place

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

"Re-signing David was like us picking up a star player in free agency"

 

[DiggityDog]

Ekholm hits just as much as Gryz

He’s much less physical than Carlo

BUT HE’S 6-4!

Need to get nasty back there

Remember kids physical means hitting and hitting only.

6-4 seems like a guy who can handle a forecheck, but that’s not important. Must hit

 

[Oates2Neely]

Garland seeking 5-6m per. OEL at 7m+ for 6 more years. Nucks give up 9th overall… Guess this comes down to: Is OEL cooked or not?

 

[PB37]

Ekholm hits just as much as Gryz

He’s much less physical than Carlo

BUT HE’S 6-4!

Need to get nasty back there

Ekholm doesn't rack up hits but he is much more physically engaged than Grz and harder to move in front of the net. Plus, he has averaged around twice as many blocked shots a year than Grz.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Sweeney and His Bruins are awesome at finishing in 2nd place

If they don't pick up some NHL players we wont have to worry about that for while. I have to believe they understand this roster stinks bad after the first line and Charlie on the back end.

And I think I'm being very kind

 

[Mainehockey33]

Big difference , one is 25 the other is 33 . Bruins need to go younger not older.

Not if it makes them worse in the process.

@GeeWally re Rask and waivers.

As you know, the last CBA has been extended and anything changed in it is covered by the Memorandum of Understanding.

Here's the only change to waivers:

CBA 13.23 amended such that it shall continue to apply to another Club’s RFA but it shall not apply to UFAs who play for a club outside North America after the start of the NHL Regular Season through and including December 15.

That changes what I said earlier in my response to you, that it only applies if he plays a game in Europe. That is this section of the CBA

13.23 In the event a professional or former professional Player plays in a league outside North America after the start of the NHL Regular Season, other than on Loan from his Club, he may thereafter play in the NHL during that Playing Season (including Playoffs) only if he has first either cleared or been obtained via Waivers.

So, to answer your question, I have no clue what KPD is talking about, who gave him that information, or if something else changed that I am oblivious to. (and you know me, I like to keep up on these things).

Hope that answers your question.

 

[tonino2424]

Lets be realistic, Donny wont do shit except for some minor signing on D and hope the kids will be better this year. "We tried, the prices were more expensive then we wanted to give up. A full season of TH will make a big difference... bla, bla, bla". Things never change on Causeway st. and never will until we have new ownership / management.

 

[JerseyBruin]

Not if it makes them worse in the process.

At this point in time I'd take Dvorak over Kessel 10 times out of 9 .

 

[Troublesome 85]

Now that @DominicT is here give us all who are fiending good news
