Boston Bruins 2023-24 Roster and Salary Cap Discussion IX

[Oates2Neely]

Anthony Duclair’s speed would be welcomed here

 

[Number8]

Feels like the Habs are the tougher team right now

Wifi
Guhle
Kovacevic

They are, but the also suck. So there’s that.

 

[Over the volcano]

Luke Kunin would be great for the bottom 6. Played with TFred in Wisconsin, he'd be great in the room, could fill in just about anywhere up front an could thrive in the organization.

Would also think he'd come cheaper than their bigger names

 

[dugg133]

The bottom 6 on this roster as currently constructed gives you nothing every night. It's time to nut the f*** up and call up the kids, cause they can't be worse then this.

 

[Troublesome 85]

Get nicky D from philly

 

[Sheppy]

Get nicky D from philly

If he was slightly better than he is, for sure, I love the way he plays the game.

He just sucks.

 

[The don godfather]

That granlund on sharks looks very interesting. He keeps popping points.

Skilled, but undersized and makes $5M per year

We need scoring badly.

Bruins are not taking on this guys salary & if they did I would be posting weekly for change at GM.Yes the Bruins need help at centre but do you really want to tie up 5 million cap on this guy going into off season ?Think longer term Donny.They can do better in my humble opinion.

Wish his salary was less the guy is producing incredibly on a putrid sharks team. Mayhe we can send some crap salary and make it work.

 

[KrugAvoy]

Lucic being an idiot really threw a wrench into things. We need scoring and we need a physical pushback.

Steen, Boquist, Richard, Lauko just aren't cutting it now

 

[Absurdity]

At forward, the Bruins need to somehow figure out how to get Lysell and Beecher on the roster. I would like to see Lysell with Marchand and Coyle and hopefully Montgomery keeps DeBrusk with Zacha and Pastrnak together, they looked great tonight.

 

[DominicT]

I told @DKH a couple of weeks ago (? I have no sense of time) that Jacob Middleton has been informed by his agent that the Bruins were expressing a lot of interest. I know his family very well since they live down the street from me and everyone would welcome the move including Jacob.

I don't know how far talks got, if they've ended or are still ongoing so please don't ask. I can't tell you what I don't know.

I would be happy getting Middleton and Duhaime, just can't be trading any more top picks, offer one of Forbort or Grizz + Steen + Beecher and a smaller piece Zboril?

I don’t think that deal gets you much of anything. Maybe a mid to late round pick from a contender that needs Forbort or Grizz. Definitely not one of the top dmen on the market.

thanks Dom.
Great seeing you here. Take care of yourself.

Good that they seem to know that they need to add somebody nasty

Re Middleton

Agree..trading Steen and Zboril is the hockey equivalent of cleaning out the basement. Grizz is a UFA who has played his value down over the year. Forbort might have some value but at $3m is overpaid

Jake is horribly inconsistent and a UFA, Beecher has been buried in Providence

if I am the Wild I ignore them all- their ask is Frederick

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

How would folks feel if Carlo is the one to go? As you all know Im not a fan of his game and would be happy if we move on from him.

Especially if the Hanifin stuff is somewhat accurate.

If their ask is Frederick than that should be a very short phone call. That's a **** no

In general not happy at all. But everyone has a price. But I'd have to be absolutely blown away by an offer to let Carlo go. He is extremely valuable, and really underpaid for what he delivers. And they have absolutely no one who can replace him, and even adding Hanifin, does nothing to replace him.

Who is your #2 RHD at that point? Someone playing their wrong side, which they seem to hate doing

The Bruins have cultivated Frederics career, and now it is finally paying off, sorry not moving him for that deal.
