Boston Bruins 2023-24 Roster and Salary Cap Discussion VII

[Number8]

Not arguing with anyone. Was just mentioning solid talent that were sent packing that have played in the all Star game. Regardless of cup wins their is some solid talent.

No, don’t get me wrong. I was just making comment about those guys a whole. Agree, a good group.

 

[zaYG]

I think the point was all those players went on to perform better than they did here, except Loui, who's numbers dropped like a stone. Hence the scratching head smilie for him.

Yes, that is the case. Eriksson was an all-star prior to being here, was mediocre here, and SUCKED after leaving. The rest were all-stars after leaving Boston.

 

[zaYG]

Bergy
Coyle
Zacha
Geekie

That would be solid down the middle. Hope Bergy returns.

Geekie at 4C is a huge luxury. You'd love to see it.

I do wonder if Vatrano would be a good pickup for us. He's been real good since leaving. But not sure if the Bruins would be interested

He'd be a better pickup than Bertuzzi was last year IMO.

Vatrano -- Zacha -- Pasta

Marchand -- Coyle -- DeBrusk

JVR -- Poitras -- Frederic

Heinen -- Beecher -- Geekie

And he can play center too. His stats are consistent. Should be an intriguing option come TDL.

Vatrano? He’s never played center. 180 faceoffs in his career

I hate when players retire and comeback. Either stay retired or don’t retire in the first place

Is this a complaint about jay z?

I think what the poster means is Loui Eriksson's production fell off a cliff after he left the Bruins:

Going from 30G 63P to averaging ~10G and 20 or so points is not what I'd call on a par with what Vatrano, Thornton, Seguin, Wheeler, Kessel, and Hamilton did post-Bruins.

Yep. Eriksson was an albatross for Vancouver. Really, of this lot, only Kessel has truly found success when it mattered.

Calgary Flames’ Noah Hanifin is new No. 1 on Daily Faceoff’s Trade Targets board

The Flames already moved the premier rental center. They also now have the market cornered on defense.

[Fenian24]

From this list Tanev, Maroon, Lyubushkin and Seeler would be player I would look at acquiring.

 

[wintersej]

Alright, should we talk Chychrun again?

If price was similar would you prefer him over Hanifin?

Or are you on team Lorhei as top 4D right now?

Wonder if Ottawa would do a hockey trade Lindholm for Chychrun? Other players could be added, maybe get Giroux as well.

I think for a hockey trade they would be more interested in Carlo or a goalie. They have Chabot and Sanderson at LD as it is.

I would consider Ullmark straight up for Chychrun, but they would need to move Korpisalo first I would think.

 

[RedSlider]

I'm not as high on Lohrei as other Bruins fans are so I'd happily do 2025 first + Lohrei for Chychrun but I'm not sure Ottawa would say yes to that package.

 

[MarchysNoseKnows]

And the yearly overrating of Chychrun has begun, right on schedule….

 

[Patdud]

Now we just need a Horvat rumbling, get the gang back together

Maybe Colorado is looking to move on from Miles Wood?

 

[Sheppy]

Or the a random Czech player to play with Pastrnak and Zacha just to say we have a Czech line.

 

[Mione134]

Vatrano? He’s never played center. 180 faceoffs in his career

Thing is he's considered a wing and a center. So he can do both if put into a situation where he needs to be.

Considered a center by whom? He’s 500+ games into his NHL career and has never played there.

I've definitely seen him play center at one point in his career. Obviously he's a wing. But he can be versatile.
