Boston Bruins 2023-24 Roster and Salary Cap Discussion XII: The sky is falling!

[The don godfather]

We’ll see- if he pulls off Lindholm for JDB and Beecher I’ll lean a little more your way

Just a little eh? That would be Copperfield stuff.

 

[Hookslide]

What? DeBrusk also plays about 2 games in 10, maybe, Lindholm is at minimum solid defensively and can produce with a solid winger, which Boston has two of in Marchand and Pasta.

Nobody would deal Lindholm straight up for DeBrusk, Beecher is the minimum add.

Vancouver fans are not happy with Lindholm much like Bruins fans won't be after they get over the excitement of their brand new toy.

Ok ......we will see

I'm not a Sweeney fan, but if he could get Lindholm for JDB and Beecher, he should get his choice of any 10 of us to perform sexual favors for him (thank God I'm so ugly).

If he pulled that off and anyone's reaction was to be upset Beecher was in the deal.... I just don't have words.

 

[goldnblack]

If Debrusk and Linus go out and Lindholm and Hanafin come in, we riot

 

[chizzler]

What is it, two teams Lindholm has sucked in this year?

I'm getting a Donny picture and putting it right beside my bed if that happens.

LeBrun rumblings: Latest on Guentzel, Toffoli, Hanifin and other top targets as NHL trade market heats up

With the NHL trade deadline closing in on Friday, the market is picking up. Here's the latest on 15 top targets.

theathletic.com

Colleague Chris Johnston tweeted Tuesday that he’s heard the Vancouver Canucks are considering flipping Elias Lindholm to the Boston Bruins as a way to get to Guentzel both cap-wise and asset-wise. The Bruins were one of the teams that tried with the Calgary Flames on Lindholm before he got shipped to Vancouver on Jan. 31. And well, it hasn’t gone swimmingly for Lindholm in Vancouver.

But that doesn’t change the fact that the Canucks may still find Pittsburgh’s price too high. The Edmonton Oilers have kept tabs on Guentzel, too, as have other teams.

The package sought by the Penguins depends on the suitor but past trades involving Bo Horvat last year and Claude Giroux two years ago are comparables to look at. And even Lindholm this season.

A clutch playoff performer, the Penguins should get what they want or close to in this transaction, regardless of where Guentzel lands. The market is overloaded with forwards, and it feels like a buyers’ market. But in this particular case, you’re talking about the top of the rental food chain

[BamBamCam]

You seem to be touting Gagne's 60% face-off rate. It's a significant outlier from his performance at the dot throughout his career, as well as a small sample size (27 games).

I'm not sure who JBD is. I'm guessing you mean JDB. Are you comparing Gagne (55 goals, 127 points) with DeBrusk (133 goals, 255 points) over the past 7 seasons? I don't think that works either.

I'm Comparing JDB 7 seasons before this one to Gagne Fo% to this is season.

 

[bruins4thecup65]

I dunno I’m not sold on Lindholm..he’s minus 10 on the Canucks or something

Little worried about the price tag. What do we realistically think would need to be sent from our end to get Lindholm in that 3 way deal?

Hate to see DeBrusk traded

DeBrusk is money in the playoffs

 

[goldnblack]

I dunno I’m not sold on Lindholm..he’s minus 10 on the Canucks or something

That's sort of exactly when you wanna buy low though. Last thing we'd want is to buy him at +10.

 

[CDJ]

I'm Comparing JDB 7 seasons before this one to Gagne Fo% to this is season.

He’s only taken 23.

 

[The don godfather]

E.lindholm and H. Lindholm on the same team. Make it happen Donny.

 

[Chevalier du Clavier]

Why? I’m not trying to be difficult. Seems like apples and oranges, but I’ve been known to be slow on the uptake.

Hopefully it’s just a baseless rumor and the Bruins stand pat at the deadline.

Or just bring in any center that wins fo's I don't care if he's scrub otherwise. I been screaming about Coyle all season, It cost them the win tonight and many other points this season. He's a lifer third liner for a reason

DS need to get this done or we are one and done

The best faceoff guy in the org by far is Beecher, sadly he makes too much.

 

[dugg133]

I'm not the biggest Elias Lindholm fan out there, but I think if you add him and then bring Beecher back up that having those two guys for situation faceoffs on either side of the ice would go a long way towards helping fix the 6 on 5 issues.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

how about ullmark and debrusk to Njd?
maybe get mcleod and mercer?

 

[Shaun]

lindholm to the dressing room…
