Boston Bruins 22-‘23 Bruins roster and trade proposals discussions. VII

[shelbysdad]

And Lohrei could be a McAvoy.

But I really doubt it.

Did we REALLY expect McAvoy to be a McAvoy?

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

So Schenn fits that description.

A guy who going stay in his lane, play extremely physical, and be a guy who makes the opposition pay a price to retrieve the puck and play low/on the wall over seven games. Not saying its perfect, but its an element that the Bruins, who get beat up (not fighting) and broken down over a heavy series, need to add to their roster IMHO.

On the forward front...

Domi
Bonino
Acciari
JVR

Wishful thinking Meier but the cost and his contract would not work with Pasta's...

What about a guy like Kulikov?(tho i imagine for him to be worth it for bruins, theyd need double retention on him)

I also imagine a guy like Henrique might be on bruins' radar, get 2 runs with him... not someone who is going to break the bank(as far as trade assets go) , and if you can get him with retention/send back cap to make it work could be a solid add. He kills penalties and wins face offs, and plays good down the middle in your top 9, or can play both wings comfortably in your top 9

 

[McGarnagle]

All I know is that if Lysell and/or Lohrei and a first are going out, they'd darn sure better win the cup.

 

[Absurdity]

Why would Grzelcyk have to be moved in order to obtain Chychrun? Can't Grzelcyk or Forbort play on their offside?

 

[goldnblack]

That Carolina cap space with Patches on LTIR is really terrifying. We gotta watch them trade for a few heavy heavy guns.

 

[bbfan419]

Adding Chychrun would be sick, but I'm not sure who they're moving as part of the package or a separate deal, meaning Gryz or Forbort or Reilly. If it's Reilly, you're likely giving up 1st + Lysell +Beacher +??? just to attach him and his extra year. You then likely have to trade one of Forbort or Gryz in the off season as well. A top 4 of Lindholm-McAvoy and Chychrun-Carlo is absolutely filthy, as someone above alluded to. Not sure we need him though if that's the going price.

I really want Toewes here as our 4C.
Tarasenko as 3RW
I think our D is fine.

Marchy-Bergy-Debrusk
Zacha-Krejci-Pasta
Hall-Coyle-Tarasenko
Foligno-Toewes-Frederic
Nosek/Lauko

Out in some sort of deals are Reilly, Smith, 1st 2024, Kinkaid, Steen, 3rd rounder 2023, Ahcan

I like Tarasenko, but would prefer Meier, if we can work out a deal without that $10m QO involved.

 

[Blowfish]

All I know is that if Lysell and/or Lohrei and a first are going out, they'd darn sure better win the cup.

At $4.6 mil 2024-25 and 2025-26? Really?

Donny pulls this off? I would be ecstatic.

 

[Kegs]

I look forward to them throwing out a massive package for him and he gets put on IR a week or so later after yet another season ending surgery

The Rick Nash special

 

[bbfan419]

I like Chchyrun, but I think Gavrikov would be a lot cheaper to acquire and can give you some of what Chchyrun does and maybe you can sign him to a decent deal, Grizz + Beecher possibly goes the other way. Then add some depth like Bortuzzo on D and Lafferty at Forward, then you can go for it if you think it is worth it for a guy like Meier, for Smith+20231st+Lohrei,

 

[Kegs]

In - Toews @ 75% retained, Chychrun = 2.625M + 4.6M = 7,225,000M coming in
Out - Smith, 1st, Lohrei, Beecher, Lauko, Grizz = 3.1M + 3,687,500 = 6,787,500 going out

This equals to the bruins paying just 437,500 more.

Imagine

Chychrun - Mcavoy
Lindholm - Clifton
Forbort - Carlo

WOW

There we go. Putting Clifton on the second pairing again.

All I know is that if Lysell and/or Lohrei and a first are going out, they'd darn sure better win the cup.

Prepare the riot gear homie.

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

My proposal:
To Vegas:
Reilly, Smith

To Boston:
Reilly Smith

 

[Hookslide]

There are no guarantees they win the cup and that Lysell or Lohrei are NHL players.......

 

[dangermike]

Why would Grzelcyk have to be moved in order to obtain Chychrun? Can't Grzelcyk or Forbort play on their offside?

Gryz looked especially nice with lindholm imo

That would be ugly.........

This is the move I am pounding the table for. He is the lone bright spot on a putrid (but promising in the future) roster.

All we need is some retention on the contract.

 

[ODAAT]

I suppose but I`m one who subscribes to the notion that those teams who make the most noise at the deadlines are more often than not, playing golf without having celebrated a cup win

I feel teams who make the quiet, subtle changes to add some depth do themselves more of a favor

I`d like a Gavrikov and Barbashev addition

 

[rocketdan9]

Why would Grzelcyk have to be moved in order to obtain Chychrun? Can't Grzelcyk or Forbort play on their offside?

No

Especially Forby

Grz is also not a good matchup against heavier bottom 6 (playoffs). Samuel Girard almost lost his head in the playoffs

yep he’d be a really good Swiss Army knife type move, and the 2nd year is nice. When I watch bruins I think Henrique is an excellent roster fit… obviously there’s better options out there but cap/trade cost might make it almost impossible to manage

 

[Bruinaura]

My proposal:
To Vegas:
Reilly, Smith

To Boston:
Reilly Smith

Can you imagine all the "who's on first" jokes that would spawn? lol

 

[McGarnagle]

The Rick Nash special

Worst was when Chiarelli gave away two second rounders for Brett Connolly to try to make the playoffs and save his job and in literally his first practice with the team he breaks his hand and misses like 4 weeks.

Even with full retention, that $2.9M extra year is a killer. Non-starter to me given the team's cap situation next year.

even without the injury that was a brutal trade.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

Prepare the riot gear homie.

actually that clifton lindholm pairing was lights out when tbey were together.
its the carlo forbort pairing that woukd be laughable.
do people not realize clifton leads the team in hits and blocks?

 

[Gee Wally]

 

[rocketdan9]

That would be ugly.........

Not really

Clifton did a fine job filling in - 1st quarter of the season

Maybe low drive for another cup ? And just wants to retire a BH...

Blackhawks have no power due to full NTC. Correct?
