Boston Bruins 2026 Offseason Roster & Salary Cap Thread VIII

They just won the cup with Anderson and Bussi why the hell would they be going after Hellebuyck.
I thought the same thing.

Then I thought: What if it’s because they know of a rival who needs a goaltender and they’re trying to either block that deal to keep them improving? Or perhaps they’re trying to drive up the price on acquisition.

Because Anderson is injury prone and bussi is not in NHL goalie

What the f*** is wrong with this front office?
 
He was let go by Boston and Florida journeyman will be gone if they do get helly
That’s a little unfair to Bussi. He was on teams with a starter and backup pretty much locked in. Ends up in Carolina and has the shot and just managed to make a historical achievement and win a cup.

Now, is he ready to be a starter? That’s a valid debate. He is an nhl goalie though.

Thoughts on this:

To Bos:
Draisaitl
Nurse

To Edm:
3x 1st ('26, '27, their choice of our picks in '28)
Lorhei
Middlestadt
Poitras

Overpay? Underpay? Figure absorbing the Nurse contract should soften the cost of Drai. I know Edm doesn't hire Babcock if they're planning to blow it up, but fun to think about Sturm getting Drai.
As he and McDavid drag that poorly shaped roster I cannot imagine they trade either but that would be a yes for the Bruins.

Every day and twice on Sunday. I'd love to squeeze a Lindholm in there too even if it costs another pick and salary retention. This front office can barely draft or develop anyways.

He only got on the ice because Anderson got hurt he had a juggernaut in front of him the reason he didn't make Florida even as a backup is because he sucked if they get helly from Winnipeg he will be in the minors
