- Thread starter Fenway
- Start date
I'd like to see a poll on that of the players....I seriously doubt that. Show them the money
Trader Lou got a haul for Brock, what a great deal for the Isle.
Ritchie at the least will be a sold 3rd line center.

I will root for the Habs until Sweeney and Neely are fired if they extend Marchand.
And I thought I was being extreme.
He has to know the situation.
He knows he is declining
He knows he is dealing with injuries
He knows his age
If he is saying I only want 4 years not 2, he is opening the door to bring traded and sorry but this is a business and the team needs to put the team first.
Each player knows that trades are part of the business they are in
Why were the Patriots so good for so long..
Because they wouldn't over pay aging players with long term contracts
I agree some positive moves have to be made and signing Marchand to a 4 year extension is ridiculous. He has been a good player over the years but his body is starting to show the wear and tear.
Bruins better do some moves that show they are serious about righting this ship sooner rather than later. This may include trading Coyle, Carlo or Marchand , etc. .
Whoever is my 18,000th like gets a personalized a few words from NeelyDan YouTube clip
Trade Marchy now, while you can get something for him. We are not making the playoffs this year, or next year.
I love Brad. I’ve been a Bruins fan for about 50 years. He’s probably in my top ten favorites of all time. But if you can get a monster package for him as a 37 year old then you have to do it 10 times out of 10. If he wants to come back after the season, even better.
Exactly
So from what I am hearing from some posts, it's not ok to trade him but it's ok for a player to leave as a FA

Salt and light
I trust that he and the team have had extensive discussions. Right now it is all speculation by these supposed insiders. If it happens then it happens. My only hope it is because Marchand asked to be after being unable to reach an agreement on a contract extension. This simply cannot be botched because the backlash is going to be worse than what it was with Thornton.

If the bolts can move on from Stamkos we can move on from Marchand.
If Mngt is foolish enough to give him 4-years, the last two will be played where he started, on the P-Bruins.
One year deal(s) going forward.
Every year I get to this day and remember that I should ask for the TDL date as a vacation day

Don't move the goalposts. We are talking about the trade deadline which is a different beast than FA. If he wanted to walk July 1 then that's his prerogative as he's no longer under contract.
I usually do take trade deadline off but having to go in for further tests on Wednesday threw a wrench into those plans. Thankfully it all worked outEvery year I get to this day and remember that I should ask for the TDL date as a vacation day
I didn't
You are saying the team should be loyal to the players but the players can leave as a FA
It's the teams prerogative to trade him as he is under team control
