Boston Bruins 2023-24 Roster and Salary Cap Discussion V

[Kegs]

Why are we still sharing this stuff?

"Some chatter/Don ""Could"" look into"

Then they reference this "NHL Source" saying "I'm thinking Sweeneys in on Zadorov".

So the "chatter" they are basing this rumor off of is just a "source" *speculating* Don is currently interested in Zadorov.

Every team that wants to win is probably in on zadorov.

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

Every team that wants to win is probably in on zadorov.

Teams have different ideas on what they need to win.

Plenty of teams want to win and probably have little interest in Zadorov.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Perry for league minimum isn't a terrible idea

Better option than Heinen

 

[rocketdan9]

Perry for league minimum isn't a terrible idea

Uhhh no

No drama please

I mean ...we will see/reasoning for dismissal

But I still wouldnt want Perry. It would be like replacing Foligno with a slower skating version.

 

[Gee Wally]

To those posting rumors about Perry.
It ends now.

Don Sweeney has made 3 trades with the Anaheim Ducks: February 21, 2020 February 24, 2020 March 19, 2022 2024 is just around the corner, but he might not make it that far.

C'mon home Urho!

 

[the negotiator]

Dom is one of the very few I pay any attention to when it comes to trade rumors

the Ducks have a number of forwards with size..one in particular has accumulated 29 pims....if the Sharks game isn't a lot better I wouldn't be surprised to see small to mid- size trade to shake things up

Ducks don't really have anything that'd be realistically available that I want.

Franklin Vatrano aka the Springfield Rifle?

.....pulls up capfriendly

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

I mean if the ducks really aren’t sold on Carlsson sure.

 

[ranold26]

They have cap space.

 

[MarchysNoseKnows]

They were denied by the Blackhawks' GM.

Lyubushkin and Gudas are interesting on defense. Not sure who would be available at forward that would interest the Bruins. Maybe Jones?

What’s the fascination with Lyubushkin? He’s on his third team in 3 years. I’m not a big Corsi guy but he’s at 35% which is deplorable. He has absolute zero offensive aptitude. A Forbort-Lyubushkin pairing would be an affront to any reasonable hockey - eye test or otherwise. He was not good for the Leafs in the only playoff series he played in and the Leafs happily let him walk despite their defensive issues.

Is it because he hits? Because I can’t see any reason to acquire him for the right side.

 

[dugg133]

They have cap space.

And who are we dumping on them to free up cap? We don't exactly have a lot of fat on the roster to trim right now.

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

I can’t lie, I’m so curious what Perry did.

I’m sure it’ll come out eventually.

As for improving the Bruins I think they need serious help. My belief is they were playing above their heads. I do not believe they are a legitimate cup contender.

If I knew how to get a great center I’d send Sweeney a fax but, alas, I don’t know. I think Tavares needs a change of scenery. But that seems unlikely

 

[dugg133]

Zegras only has 2 points on the season, if anything they should pay us to take him.

 

[sarge88]

Me too!

 

[McGarnagle]

Silfverberg and Henrique are pending UFAs in Anaheim, also Sam Carrick who brings some physicality. I'd probably want Carrick the most of them but Anaheim's probably going to get strong offers for him at the deadline because of the low cap hit he brings.

Killorn is there, and if it was Killorn from 3 years ago I'm all over that, but not touching his current contract at 34 years old. He's not even hitting anyone this year, could be being surrounded by Ducks instead of Bolts, could be the injury, or maybe he's washed up. And if it's either of the latter two, you're not taking on a 6.25 million contract for the next 4 seasons. Looks like an albatross.

I love Frank but he's got a year left at a reasonably team friendly rate so they aren't compelled to sell him.

Gryz for Carrick and Lyubushkin makes mathematical sense. But not sure it makes hockey sense.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

With JVR looking like a shrewd signing and Lucic no longer being on the team we do kind of have an opening for a skilled slower big veteran. I'd sign Perry for the minimum.

Stop

 

[quietbruinfan]

Henrique still has some juice. Carrick would not hurt. Fowler is expensive but still has jump.

 

[SPV]

Carrick, Jones, and Vatrano make some sense for us, but not sure about them.


Edit. Oh, and Lyubushkin too, for sure.

What does “still has some juice” and “still has jump” mean?


I don’t watch much ducks so I would like you to expand on that.

Thanks
