NopeI mean, is Max worth a 2.4M QO? Honestly I don't know and that's a genuine question from me.
Carrick and Leason are the others. But I wouldn’t be surprised if either of them are waived.
What RWs would you guys want to add this summer? I'm generally against guys playing their off wing but it's more manageable but I think we only have like 3 RS forwards. Terry, Stome and Silf.
Wouldn't be shocking seeing as they were after palat last off-season.I mentioned it the other day but I think Killorn makes some sense. Probably only a 2-3 year contract somewhere between 5-6 per year. Solid veteran, won't block anyone, good defensively, top 6 scorer.
Henrique-McTavish-Terry
Zegras-Fantilli-Killorn

Nope
ComtoisJust in the door.
Are you guys talking about Max Domi?
Eff that.
But I digress,

Are Pavel Zacha and Charlie Coyle ready to be the Bruins’ Nos. 1 and 2 centers, if need be? - The Boston Globe
The team has to have a plan if Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci retire, and it is not in a great position for player acquisition.www.bostonglobe.com
"A" makes the most sense. Either Z or Fantili/Carlsson play wing most likely. Imo.I have a question. Assuming we draft Fantilli (but the same could also apply to Carlsson) what would you say the odds are that we:
A. Convert a player to wing and run pairs on 2 top lines.
B. Run 3 centers in Zegras, McTavish and Fantilli.
C. Convert a player to wing and load 3 of them on the top line.
I think C is much less likely, but I included it to cover all the bases.
I would guess A=60%, B=35% and C=5%. Thoughts?

Your first sentence is so interesting to me because, in my opinion, Zegras looked much more active defensively than McTavish.I personally think Zegras doesn't have the makeup to be a center. I just don't feel he is that invested in being defensively responsible the way MacTavish and Fantilli are. I feel they are our top 2 centers of the future so that Terry and Zegras can focus purely on offense.
I do want to see what Fantilli and Zegras can do together. Their speed and playmaking ability with a finisher would be super exciting to watch. The biggest issue with this is that our only top 6 forwards with R shots are Strome and Terry. I don't like the idea of overloading the top line with our best talents, especially on the road. So, without any moves I see our best option as:
Zegras Fantilli Strome
MacTavish Henrique Terry
Vatrano Lundy Silf
Jones/Carrick/Nesterenko/Leason/McGinn
I'm actually disappointed to hear MacTavish and Terry don't have any chemistry because I was hoping that they would work so well between 2 way veteran like Strome or Henrique.
If we can make a move for a Top6 Forward, buyout/trade Silf, I would then run:
Zegras Fantilli Top6 RW
Vatrano MacTavish Terry
Henrique Lundy Strome
Jones/Carrick/Nesterenko/Leason/McGinn
Your first sentence is so interesting to me because, in my opinion, Zegras looked much more active defensively than McTavish.
Which is partially understandable considering McTavish is a rookie and probably exhausted from too much hockey, but still. Zegras completely changed my mind about his defensive abilities this season.
For sure. I think they both play to their strengths, which is great. I also think McTavish's style will be more effective when we have a better defense lolI think Zegras only looks more active defensively than McTavish because Z will chase to re-gain possession but it seems BigMac defends by positioning himself to block plays. More of a philosophy difference than an effort difference I think.
Drysdale, Terry, Dostal, Henrique, and Benoit all have interviews up if you click the link in the tweet
His QO is just over the league minimum so I would be shocked if he wasn't brought backIt looks like we're retaining Benoit for next season?
Mason working out with Drysdale and getting a shout out from Terry.
