Boston Bruins 2024-2025 Roster & Salary Cap Discussion VI

[Mick Riddleton]

Bert and Jake going back in time for a trade

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

I think Bertuzzi likes Toronto. Legal reasons.

I’ve heard some pretty funny rumors about some big name players and the green stuff. Thats all I know I can say though lol

 

[Mione134]

The green and white are some hockey players kryptonite

 

[RI.B FAN]

Bertuzzi disappeared for almost 3 months last year and survived.

Bert is a stronger individual than Jake

 

[bruinmann77]

DS needs to really fleece ott in this trade. Just hope he hit a home run in the start of FA

Chychrun and 25th overall would be sweet.

[Gordoff]

Trade you. I've recharged my phone 3 times today.

There is no pressure on Staios. He and Andlauer go back. Staios is patient, knows how to build a winner and does very well in trade negotiations. I kind of hoped he would join the Bruins organization but when Andlauer bought the Sens, everyone knew Staios would be joining him there.

Dom, did you end up going "Live" on YouTube yesterday evening?

 

[Gordoff]

"That was my skull, I'm so wasted!"

 

[bruinmann77]

Yes anything more would be a steal

 

[Gordoff]

Yes anything more would be a steal

Nonsense!

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

Chychrun and 25th overall would be sweet.

And then trade Lindholm for a forward? It’s only my opinion but I don’t think Lindholm is the guy the Bruins need for his current role as a # 2 .

 

[JoeIsAStud]

And then trade Lindholm for a forward? It’s only my opinion but I don’t think Lindholm is the guy the Bruins need for his current role as a # 2 .

Why would Lindholm choose to waive his NMC? And if we don't think he is worthy of being the #2, why do you think teams would want to give us a good forward for him?

 

[DominicT]

Dom, did you end up going "Live" on YouTube yesterday evening?

No. I will be on What's Bruin Tuesday at 630 and Black and Gold Wednesday at 630.

If something happens before Tuesday, that show will happen earlier. I think Wednesday they want to talk draft if I remember correctly.

I don't do any prep for these things. I'd rather just wing it and look like an idiot.

 

[CellyHard]

As much as I've come around to Chyrchrun, they should do everything they can to get #7 and flip it for Rutger McGroarty

Whatever it is that kid just has "it"

I get it's probably a slim chance but if there is ever a time to get the next young power forward this sure seems like the chance

Is it crazy to consider adding Korpisalo (maybe 25-50% retained) and hope he gets picked up through waivers...worst case you buy him out

 

[Alan Ryan]

So if it does happen a guess on the lineup:

Lindholm - McAvoy
Chychrun - Carlo
Lohrei/Wotherspoon - Peeke

Pretty solid D core there. Need a lot of help on offense haha

Outstanding defense.

 

[The don godfather]

Outstanding defense group.

Things like ea fantasy stuff with that D core. Love it.

I think we get a much better player than McGroarty at #7, maybe Iginla or Catton.

 

[JOKER 192]

Jake is one if not the best FA on the market. He will cash in and good for him, they will be getting a money player a 200 foot player that's not all about winning prizes in the regular season.

I truly hope it's not the leaf's he signs with.

Not even close

Maybe you should look at a list of FA's

 

[Gordoff]

You NEVER, ever look like an idiot EVER!

Great name that Rutger McGroarty!

 

[Dr Quincy]

Wait until we play them in the playoffs.....

Salary question.... probably Dom territory...

If Ottawa retains, to pick a random number 50 percent, can we buy out kopisalo, and how does that work with buying out a player on retention?

The buyout would be split between both teams. He's due 16m, they'd owe him 2/3 of that (about 10.5m) That would be split, so each team would owe him about 5m+ spread out over 8 years

 

[BostonBob]

McGroarty was drafted by Winnipeg 14th overall in 2022. Apparently he has told the Jets that he will not sign with them.

At what point does he get recycled (for lack of a better term) back into the amateur draft?

 

[Demon Eyes]

At what point does he get recycled (for lack of a better term) back into the amateur draft?

He wouldn't be. His rights would be traded or he waits till he finishes university and signs wherever as a free agent.

 

[Over the volcano]

With the extension talk around Ullmark and the deal with Ottawa - any thoughts on working a Chychrun extension too or will he be 1. a rental, 2. flipped, or 3. a "let's get to know each other first" relationship?
