Boston Bruins ‘22-‘23 Bruins roster and trade proposals discussions. II

[Tbaybruin]

If management thinks they can win a cup and also sign a top free agent college I’m ok with trading a first What else can we do? I don’t think moving Riely or Smith hurts the team on or off the ice But it will costs us.

Move Reilly/Smith....sign Parker Ford

Not sure what we need at trade deadline, no weaknesses

 

[Dizzay]

I'd retain a million on Reilly and see what the market looks like.....aka 33.3% of his cap.

 

[Tbaybruin]

We will need over 10 mil for pasta and hoping 9 mil for Horvat and 3 for Cliffy.

 

[Numbah4]

Come out of those three games with:

2 points - Fine
3 points - Nice
4 points - Great
5 points - Awesome
6 points - Amazing

I'm perfectly content with anything from Nice to Amazing!

I was going to do a poll on 10 game stretch coming up after Chicago. How many points?

N21 at TB
N23 at Florida
N25 Carolina
N29 TB
D3 Colorado
D5 Vegas
D7 at Colorado
D9 at Arizona
D 11 at Vegas
D 13 Islanders

No back to backs. No trips to Canada, eh? 6-3-1

Have to imagine it's still not much, but maybe slightly more than the unclaimed waiver.

6th or 7th for retaining on a cap dump would be acceptable right now.

Anything better, woohoo, but at this point I think we need to start taking what we can get and move on. The roster is rolling along and just need to get it done so they don't have to worry about it.

 

[JCRO]

I assume right now Sweeney is being asked to send picks to move Reilly out (as hes cleared waivers twice now). Id like to think at some point, one of these desperate teams that are defense deprived due to injury will lower the ask and is going to take Mike Reilly off the Bs hands.

Craig Smith is the harder move imo..

 

[Blowfish]

In this order...

Reilly
Smith
Stralman & Frederik
Forbert
Gryz

Thinking any trade will include a goalie not named Swayman / Ullmark.

 

[Absurdity]

Reilly and Carlo make sense for Ottawa. Carlo moreso if Sens could be looking for someone better than the defensemen they currently have and Heinola.

Stralman and Frederic doesn’t make sense. You can’t run an 18 skater roster so have to replace them.

 

[CellyHard]

We will need over 10 mil for pasta and hoping 9 mil for Horvat and 3 for Cliffy.

and 4 million for Swayman (Oettinger comp)

I think 9 might be a little high for Horvat but who knows. At least 8.

We are all living on top of the world right now I mean we are 15-2 but we are doing it at a cost. Between Bergeron and Krejci we have 4.5 in performance bonuses next year and we need to shed at least 1.3ish to be compliant by the time Forbort comes back.

Moving both Reilly and Smith is a must, not just for the short term but to be competitive for next year and have a chance on a guy like Horvat. It would extend the window for years.

Bruins should consider moving their 1st + Reilly for a teams 2nd. I think Smith gets claimed.

So well said. Agree 100%

So with proposal Pasta only gets 1 mil more than Horvat , Yeah I don't think that will fly . Not trading a first to move players sorry makes no sense...........

 

[CellyHard]

So I said I think 9 is high for Horvat and that he would come closer to 8.....I also said I would move the 1st for Reilly with a 2nd coming back....

Instead of looking it at like trading away a first, I see it as moving from hopefully pick 32 for somewhere in the 40-45 range. Not the end of the world. It would be great if we could do that with a team like Ottawa.

If a move like that gets us compliant this year, reduces performance bonuses, and gives us a shot at a guy like Horvat then not really sure how that would come across as making no sense

 

[GoBs]

I don't want to move Gryz at all, but somebody HAS to be moved and moving Gryz would add assets, while moving Reilly or Smith looks like it would cost assets, so it's something that needs to be considered.

And since you dema...errr...asked ever so politely...

Lindholm/Carlo
Zboril/McAvoy
Forbort/Clifton
Stralman

If Stalman could play the left side I would like to see him with McAvoy

[Hookslide]

I am sure Horvat would help this team, but is he a 8 mil player ? He had a great year last season and is off to a solid start this year but overall not sure I want too hitch my wagon to him at that cost.............That first that is important to this team should not be moved unless it is a real upgrade . Bruins have no # 2 for the next two years , another reason I am against moving picks just to move cap .................I think Bruins should not panic , I cannot believe there are no teams interested in a Gryz or Smith............they should even try to package them with prospects, like ,Mclaughlin,,Lauko who I would like on the big club now even Zabrol.........

Comparing Swayman to Ottenger is ridiculous. Swayman isn't close. I'm not giving a 2C 9 million. If Bruins were to sign Horvat as a UFA the comp is Kadri. I'd also look at Larkin if he makes it to Free Agency and Scheifele also.

Have a lovely weekend friends.
GO BRUINS!

Oettenger last year 2.14 save %, 2.53 GAA

Swayman last year 2.14 save %, 2.41 GAA

Both are like 23. If Swayman turns it around this year by no means is 4 million AAV ridiculous on a bridge

Kadri got 7x7 at 32 years old with a flat cap. If it goes up then Horvat could easily get 8 IMO

 

[Shroud of Orrin]

We're in such a position of strength it's almost surreal.

Let the market will come to us. Everyone is still waiting for Chychrun to fall (forever, but may be closer now that he's healthier). Immediately after that seize the moment and come out even in a deal.

Don't deal the first rounder...geez...

 

[The don godfather]

Tyson jost on waivers I love reclamation projects only 24 1st round pick 10 th overall has put some points in his young career like 150 points in 300 plays games I believe. I wouldn't mind claiming this young center.

You can easily Google this and find out he has 112 points in 354 games played.

Which is not the 0.50 PPG career pace you have him at. It’s more like 0.32 PPG.

There’s no reason for him. Less than zero. Do you realize that we’re already dealing with cap + roster issues? There is no space for him.

Donny tears through young centers at a rate that makes Pete Davidson blush
