[Colt.45Orr]

Obviously gone:
- JM Liles
- Stafford
--edit* Spooner



Hopefully Gone/Cap Buyouts:
- Hayes (Providence)
-Beleskey --isn't happening. Too much money. Retain 25% and try to deal him.

Lose a spot to a rookie:
- Schaller
- Dobbie


I think Vegas is taking:
- Kevin Miller made himself a target for Vegas in this series. McQuaid has another concussion (I assume) I think they take C. Miller.


Surprised to see return:
- Beleskey --surprised and not surprised
- Moore* -- I don't want him back with Kuraly (and others) ready. We are too old and small(ish) up the middle with Bergeron/Krejci------Moore Good vet, time to move on with some size and speed.


****, another year of...
- Beleskey
- Nash* I get Nash's value, I'm just not a fan of overall body of work. If he is the 4th line vet PKer then I can live with it, I guess.

DAMMIT, good catch ---of COURSE Spooner is gone.

 

[DBL]

I think Vegas is taking:
- Kevin Miller. If they watched this series, he's going to be gone.

Why would the Bruins not protect him.

You have to protect him over C. Miller and McQuaid.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

Why would the Bruins not protect him.

You have to protect him over C. Miller and McQuaid.

OBVIOUSLY because I'm angry about the series, and not rational right now.



Yes, you have to protect McQuaid or K. Miller over C. Miller --I've been beating that drum for a long time --not really sure what I was thinking.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

I'm going to edit my original post --made a mess of it.

 

[UConn126]

Obviously gone:
-Stafford
-Liles


Hopefully Gone/Cap Buyouts:
Don't see anyone being bought out

Lose a spot to a rookie:
-Krejci (don't know who, but gonna go out on a limb and say I wouldn't be shocked to see him get bumped down to 3rd line center)



I think Vegas is taking:
-McQuaid


Surprised to see return:
-Spooner
-Moore (old, but I could see him being resigned for depth)


****, another year of...
-Beleskey
-Hayes

I don't see this being a big offseason. The guy that I'm most intrigued guy would likely be Marleau, if he could be had on a 1-2 year deal.

Marchand-Bergeron-Backes
Marleau-Krejci-Pasta
Pick 6: Acciari/Kuraly/Vatrano/Nash/Beleskey/Hayes/JFK/Moore/etc

Nailed it, though I wouldn't be surprised seeing Vatrano return. Think he can be an effective player in the right role.

Marchand Bergeron Pasta
Cehlarik Krejci Senyshen
Kulary Backes Acciari
Debrusk Nash Blidh

Chara Mcavoy
Krug Carlo
K. Miller C. Miller

Rask
Mcintyre

That forward group doesn't make the playoffs. Yuck.

 

[Lobster57]

Obviously gone:
- Liles
- Cross (i know, cop out, but he showed he'll never be a NHLer. free up the contract)


Hopefully Gone/Cap Buyouts:
- Spooner
- Hayes

Lose a spot to a rookie:
- Schaller
- Morrow

I think Vegas is taking:
- McQUaid, gutted to see him go, but Killer played his way on to the protected list.


Surprised to see return:
- Stafford, unless they can get him cheap
- DoMo


****, another year of...
- Belesky's contract

 

[rocketdan9]

That forward group doesn't make the playoffs. Yuck.

Its a transition year

Cant sign big name FAs

 

[BillnyeTheHockeyGuy*]

Obviously gone:
- Stafford
- Liles

Hopefully Gone/Cap Buyouts:
- Hayes
- Beleskey (Don't buy out though. Doesn't seem like a wise cap move)

Lose a spot to a rookie:
- Nash (returned to the zero-zone-player in this series)
- Vatrano (wouldn't mind traded. Doesn't do it for me when he's not scoring)


I think Vegas is taking:
- McQuaid (one can dream)


Surprised to see return:
- Moore
- Spooner


****, another year of...
- Beleskey
- Hayes (Hopefully in Providence at least)

 

[Ryan77]

Categories/ Template:

Obviously gone:
- Hayes (AHL)
-Belesky (someone will take a chance on him)


Hopefully Gone/Cap Buyouts:
-
- Spooner---- Duclair/Spooner

Lose a spot to a rookie:
- 0
- there will be plenty of spots available


I think Vegas is taking:
- C. Miller


Surprised to see return:
- Rask ( I think it's clear you don't need to pay a goalie 7 million... it's time to deal him and get a good return.
- Stafford

I want to add (hope he returns)

Morrow- he was fantastic for a guy who has not played in months

 

[Colt.45Orr]

What addition would it take for Vegas to take Beleskey? Spooner? 2nd rounder?

 

[Lobster57]

Is there a list of expansion eligible players? I can't see them passing on McQuaid. i'd way rather have him around in a leadership role than having Belesky or Spooner around in a wasting space/money role if i was the Golden Showers

 

[toasterjam]

id be ok with not seeing Beleskey, Hayes, Nash, Moore, Liles, Schaller, Spooner, Czarnik, Stafford

not sure what to make of C.Miller or Morrow or Vatrano (wanna give him another chance)

Give me Blidh-Kuraly-Acciari as 4th line

rebuild 3rd line with Backes center

Marchand-Bergeron-Pasta
Cehlarik-Krejci-Debrusk (watched him a bit in Providence, think he is gonna surprise a lot of people...skills and hunts the puck)
XXX-Backes-Vatrano
Blidh-Kuraly-Acciari

Chara, Krug, Carlo, McAvoy, K.Miller, C.Miller/Mcquaid/XXX

maybe we could trade Spooner's rights for another similar struggling 3rd line kinda player

Maybe Heinen will be ready for that 3rd line

 

[Lobster57]

I want Backes at C, but that leaves the wings very thin.

33/73
47/25
6(45)/86

on the back end looks really good to me.

 

[Dellstrom]

Obviously gone:
Spooner
Schaller
Stafford
Liles

Lose a spot to a rookie:
Vatrano

Hopefully gone:
Hayes

I think Vegas is taking:
Killer/McQuaid

Surprised to see return:
Schaller
Colin Miller
Joe Morrow


****, another year of...
Nash (really not too much against him, he's just "meh" in every sense of the word)
Beleskey

 

[tremha]

Hayes ends up in Providence. Would be surprised if there is a taker for him.

Might get a low payroll team like ARZ to take Belesky - especially if you package him with Spooner and / or C Miller. There will be lots of trades before the expansion draft.

C Miller has been a disappointment. Hard shot and fast skater but didn't create enough opportunities with them. Perhaps hockey IQ challenged.

I would not bring Moore back. Would much rather have a physical 4'th of Acciari, Kuraly, and Nash who is signed.

K Miller won himself onto the protected list over McQuaid and C Miller. Perhaps Zboril, Lauzon, or Matt G can be paired with him if C Miller is gone.

Spooner great on the PP but inconsistent effort and weak defensively on 5 on 5 means he goes.

Vatrano had a bad year but he was injured so came in late. Great shot and good wheels. He is on the bubble.

I like Backes as the 3C.

They need to try and sign a top 6 winger - especially if successful in getting rid of Belesky.
