Boston Bruins 2023 Off-Season CAP, Trade Rumors and Free Agent Talk VI

[Mainehockey33]

Aav was good? Hes a solid playoff warrior who roasted us in finals.

Yeah I guess you’re right, his AAV is better than Coyle’s. Could be the new 3C.

 

[bruins19]

I will be sorry to see him go. I thought that was part of the rationale for the 6M Hall salary dump. He was a very good fit and I would really have liked to see him stay. If he is gone, I hope it is to a dog team who overpays and the only way he sees the playoffs is on tv. Vindictive? Sure. Petty? Maybe.

 

[The don godfather]

Keep those el cheapo coming donny your on a roll. Wish we had snagged oel and dumped forbert or something.

 

[dugg133]

This is exactly what I was afraid we'd do. I do not want to clog the roster with older vets.

 

[rocketdan9]

Cheap signing

Not sure if he still capable to play top 6

Cross mcleod off your wishlists

All true but when the playoffs roll around that will be 6 years ago.

With a lot of miles in between.

Yup, reminiscent of the Kovalenko, Scatchard, Zamuner, etc eras...would've preferred leaving roster spots open to some youth instead...which they badly need to start integrating.

 

[Fair Warning]

JVR seems like he’d be capable of third line minutes, but not sure who he replaces/upgrades.

It looks to me dk and bergy are coming back unless we sign duchene. Possible still

Hall. I say he still has it.

 

[UncleRico]

O’Rilley to Nashville. Glad we avoided that one.

Agreed, I’m pretty much done with signing guys around his age to multi year deals

This is exactly what I was afraid we'd do. I do not want to clog the roster with older vets.

At least it’s a one year deal on cheap money. They just need bodies right now

 

[Olden McGroin]

 

[bruins19]

On an admittedly bad flyers team, in 21-22, despite scoring 24 goals, he was a -33. That was not the first time in his career that he was a -33. Maybe he will do much better with us.

 

[dugg133]

Guess I can live with him at 1 mil on the third line, but please tell me he's not in the top 6

 

[HuskyBruinPride]

JVR is fine for a year at that price. Don't mind a vet forward with so many gone, or seemingly gone.

 

[rocketdan9]

JVR Frederic Lauko?

 

[xjoeyc23x]

Still a lot of holes....

marchand - XXX - Debrusk
xxx - Zacha - Pasta
JVR/XXX - Coyle - JVR/XXX
Lucic? - XXX - Greer

Did he bring a foldable chair and park his butt on the offensive end? Jesus

 

[xjoeyc23x]

Wheeler to the Rangers.

[UncleRico]

Well my hopes of becoming a younger team building around pasta/McAvoy/swayman is not off to a good start with the JVR move and rumors of lucic on the way lol.

Still plenty of time, but kind of curious what Sweeney’s direction is right now outside of just actually filling out a roster with bodies

 

[GatorMike]

If they can get him on a Lucic/JVR style deal, I wonder if the Bruins would have any interest in Jonathan Toews.

Didnt he officially retire?

Also ...no thanks

 

[Pia8988]

For saying kids will get a shot, Donny love bringing in washed up vets

 

[xjoeyc23x]

Notable UFA centers remaining....

Bergy, Domi, DK46, JT Compher, Rodrigues, Toews
