Getting slower veterans defeats what Neely said at his press conference, getting veterans that are not in on the fore check, can't kill penalties, win faceoffs are not what Neely in Neelys plans.......
Boston Bruins 2024-2025 Roster & Salary Cap Discussion III

Yet they went out and acquired a rehabbing Maroon. Sometimes its best to let what they say go in one ear and out the other.
You are probably right, but to complain about the lack of forecheck, and Lauko sits out along with his speed and all around hustle just does not make sense to me, he was not in there for his goalscoring. Beecher,I thought played well and he brought skills to the table like face offs, PK, speed and he also along with Lauko was getting playoff experience. I would have had Boqvist in there, but I am not sure someone said he was hurt.

I want to be on record that I don’t advocate moving Carlo. 27 years old locked up for 3 more seasons at a cap hit of 4.1m, and a right hand shot D… you keep guys like this.
I was pleasantly surprised with Beechers progression. I watched him several times in Providence and he just didn’t look like a guy whose skill would translate. I was wrong. This team needs more young centers not less.

After 5 full seasons in the NHL, I don't see Necas suddenly becoming a reliable center for the bruins.

Time to move on from Beecher after his rookie season?
Should the Bruins target Jakob Chychrun in a potential Linus Ullmark trade?
An Ottawa Sun report says the Senators might be willing to move defenseman Jakob Chychrun, a first-round pick and more for Linus Ullmark.

I would take him, but I'd rather have a first round draft selection. Perhaps even both though I doubt that. The other guy to think about on Ottawa is Shane pinto. And Brady I can't forget the guys how to say his name.
Speech to text at work!

If the best deal we could get would be Chychrun, I'd take it, but I'd look to spin him off to a team desperately in need of D-men

7 goals in 50 games from the 4th line

Lead the forwards in blocked shots/60
what does he have to do to "earn a spot on the 4th line"?
I'm guessing this is a joke. Like I said, I would take him. But what I would rather have is Brenden Dillon. He would bring a dimension to the back end they are (surprise) sorely lacking.If the best deal we could get would be Chychrun, I'd take it, but I'd look to spin him off to a team desperately in need of D-men
I think the smile was more I had initially put Utah there as an example.
Yes, if I got Chychrun, I would try to trade the player. And yes, I absolutely would rather have Dillon and his next contract than Chychrun and his

And his next contract will reflect that and be 2-3 years at most
Chychrun is going to be looking for someting close to top pairing money on his next deal 7x7+ maybe.
Insider Says Martin Necas Trade Could Be Completed This Week

Not going to be a Bruin and that's fine by me. Bring in some guys that want to win in the NHL and fight it out in the playoffs, He seems like another regular season super starInsider Says Martin Necas Trade Could Be Completed This Week

From the main board:
According to Frank Seravalli and Daily Face Off:
Frank says that Carolina is the team to watch and big moves could be happening this week as they are needing to get the ball rolling on signing some of their UFAs.
"I wouldnt be shocked if Necas is traded before game 1 of Cup Finals"
I would love huge and chaotic trades occurring during the week of the finals. should happen more often!
I guess the fourth period is also reporting Guentzel is testing the market.
would signing guentzel convince Crosby to leave for that team next year?

Lindholm is a better Center than what we currently have, but he is ideally a #2C on a true cup contender.
Yeah I do not want Maroon back, don't care that he said he likes it in Boston, the guy is toast. Sure it is great to a have physical presence in the lineup, but he has to be able to skate as well, you can't hit anyone, if you are always late getting there. Look at guys like Sherwood, Joshua, Duhaime, Martinook, Kolesar they all play a gritty game, but are pretty decent skaters as well.

Necas could be moved by Saturday according to Servalli.
Frank Servalli: Yeah I don’t know if motivated is the right word, but I would say I wouldn’t be shocked to see him even moved by Saturday. I think you will see a flurry of activity ahead of the Stanley Cup Final begins.

Assuming Sweeney lands a #1 center, I’m fine with Coyle at 2C with Marchand and a Panarin type RW (Neccas/ Stamkos?)

Be serious.
Going up against Florida again, Maroon was an absolute necessity.
Exactly what did he provide? other than constantly being behind the play.
