I'm hearing 5 year - $35 million extension is the asking price from the Sens. Doesn't mean that would be the ask somewhere else.

Sens definitely need to move out some salary and a tad more if Lauko is going as well.

Dumb question please? Could he sign that with the Bruins and we retain to make the numbers work?

If the Sens give up the Bruins asking pick/s and or players

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Is today the day he get moved?

 

[Mad Dr Pepper]

Damn, I dreamed that when I woke up this morning this thread had 40+ new pages and I got excited for a second! magine my disappointment when I woke up for real this morning haha.

7 x 5 seems like a pretty reasonable number for Ullmark. If he was to hit the market, you would have to think he could easily get that.

Seems like a pretty reasonable ask for a vezina winning goalie. What the heck are they doing with Korpisalo though ha.

It's possible that the Sens buy him out, painful as that would be for them.

Hopefully Korpisalo randomly retires. A man can dream lol.

Also on another note, I have a lot of respect for Bruins fans. Always been a good bunch to deal with, unlike Leafs and Habs fans lol

It seems almost a given that Chychrun is going somewhere if the Sens are to acquire Ullmark. His current salary is close to Ullmark's.

We've heard Pinto's not in play, and I would assume Norris isn't either, so if Ottawa wants to offset an Ullmark extension, how do you do that without defeating the purpose of trading him? Chychrun and who?

Norris has no arms, so you need to pass on him. Pinto is a nice piece, but the Bruins have enough #3C types. I want Boston's 1 back and one of Grieg, Kleven or Ostapchuk at bare minimum. I would also tell them retain 50% on Korpisalo and I take a 2025 1. I do believe as well Sweeney has a deal w Colorado for 24 plus if this thing falls through as evidenced by the draft party.

Maybe to Philly w 7 for 12 + +

Through a 3rd team.

Could be someone they pick up from the Philly deal? ::

 

[Hookslide]

I just read an interview with Monty, where he was asked about areas of the team he would like to see management improve on

" speed, toughness "

Monty said that after he kept scratching, Lauko, and Beecher, ummmmmmm

 

[Gee Wally]

@DominicT , go ahead and post it.

 

[JoeIsAStud]

@DominicT , go ahead and post it.

OOH, time to break the board by refreshing every 5 seconds

 

[DominicT]

I will share this part of the convo. I will forward the rest to Wally when I get a chance, but phone is non stop.

I will add Chychrun has asked for a trade to Boston

 

[GoBs]

I would hope the bruins have an idea what Swayman is looking for before trading Ullmark. Because if it is 8 million per year and he will not budge I would send him and bring in a haul of players and picks.

Sweeney needs to get Pinto in play, get creative, ballsy, aggressive, annoying, don't go away, don't let them hang up the phone, be an obnoxious asshole, but get the job done. Bruins have young assets, Poitras, Merkolov, Lysell, they are not doing you any good in Providence, but Pinto in Boston would.

 

[DKH]

Ullmark for chychrun. Please and thanks.

It's not from him. I find it very interesting how the most unusual people can be pretty good sources from corporate season ticket salespeople to luxury suite owners. Last week I was told this was going to be a big week movement wise and Markstrom was going to be Devil that it was going to happen this week, @DKH can vouch. As far as the Bruins, sometimes you need to look into the teams organization if there is any history between ex players and management and such on an aquiring team...those are the guys that get people to waive NTC clauses.

Yup Lou told me what was going to happen days before and boom !!!!

I am quite sure they are aware of what Sway is looking for, and i kind of hope they have a deal already ready for announcement. That said it might be more than you like.

I will add this since I just got the email. Today is the deadline for the bruins raffle to win a game used Ullmark helmet. Maybe they want to wait until that is over to deal him On the other hand i guess if he is dealt it makes it even more of a collectors item
