Boston Bruins 24-25 Roster/Cap thread - Linus traded to Sens

[AngryMilkcrates]

He will rebound on Monday

I am not sure Lindholm will be enough for most fans.

nice to see everyone come together and shit on sweeney for how bad this deal is

Been a long time since we've seen the board this United.

"Cam, here's my plan. Instead of retaining a good goalie for 5m one more season we're gonna take on a worse, backup goalie for 3m a year for FOUR more years"

Cam:

 

[the negotiator]

Skinner letting in a weak goal

Maybe the Bs can trade Ullmark to the Oilers after the playoffs. ...oh wait

 

[Tbaybruin]

Did we really think we were getting a top 3 D man and a #1 pick? #1 pick and good prospect? I think we all had way to high of expectations. Yes this was less than we all expected and rightly so. Korposalo had one great playoffs and a good regular part season with LA. I’m thinking 2 more deals this week.

 

[KOZ37]

After the goal Skinner just gave up maybe we can interest them in a slightly less expensive Korpisalo

How about just not taking on Korpisalo's contract?

Beauty

I wish he had the hands of Mark Stone.

Beauty reply!!

Have you looked at Florida's roster or what style they played to get to game 7?

I have. I certainly don't see any fighting. And their players can skate well enough to play that type of game.

They basically sub their 4th line wingers in and out of the line-up to get the freshest legs into the line-up. None of their 4th line wingers are fighters, all can skate, and none are exceptionally physical either other than Lomberg who doesn't have the size for it really.

I'd get it if Kastelic was some strong defensive forward. But even a uber-conservative coach like Martin couldn't find a use for him.

 

[Absurdity]

They have their 2025 3rd so it is possible, but I doubt Sweeney does it.

I'm wrong. The Bruins won't have their 1st on July 1st.

 

[BergyWho37]

I think I rather have OTT 2nd and have Ullmarks 5mill off the books then carry Korpisalo 3mill contract for the next 4 years

 

[Gordoff]

Donny will most likely draft a lumbering defenseman at 25 who was ranked like 137th anyways. Don't mind me I am just salty about taking on Korpisalo. If it were the 25th and Kastelic I could have lived with it. Anyways I have vented and am done complaining. Out of our control right? Will forgive him if he signs Guentzal!

Don't hold your breath buddy!

 

[PoisonEye]

Willing to wait and see what other moves / signings / draft picks happen, but damn...not a promising start.

How about just not taking on Korpisalo's contract?

But then you don’t get the mystery box.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Thats my only hope. Just as you have it laid out.

He has to be going to the Flyers at the draft in some shape or form

 

[PB37]

I don't want Lauko here next year either.

Kastelic is a bum/fringe level player just like his old man. I don't care about his hits or his fights. Do you see any Kastelic's playing in the Stanley Cup final? No, because teams that employ players like that don't make the finals anymore.

Kevin Stenlund is currently centering the Panthers 4th line.

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

How about just not taking on Korpisalo's contract?

Exactly.

Like Jesucristo, not making a deal was an option. Nobody forced Sweeney to take this return

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Hope Donny hid all the water bottles before he told him.

 

[Tommy Tubs]

Skinner letting in a weak goal

Maybe the Bs can trade Ullmark to the Oilers after the playoffs. ...oh wait

Obviously not a discussionf or this board, but he has looked shaky as hell all game.

 

[JOKER 192]

So DS said if he didn't get asking return he would keep Ullmark.

That was your asking return?

I would have kept him.

Good luck Linus , may the sun shine on you every day for eternity.

 

[Gordoff]

He has to be going to the Flyers at the draft in some shape or form

Which pick will we be giving the Flyers to take him?

 

[Lobster57]

oooooph...

holding out hope that this is just the first of a "series of moves" but i'm not optimistic

 

[LouJersey]

Exactly.

Like Jesucristo, not making a deal was an option. Nobody forced Sweeney to take this return

I just don't get the urgency. Dougie Hamilton revisited

 

[BergyWho37]

Not to blame Ullmark just saying it all comes down to him not willing to sign an extension that’s why the return drop dramatically..

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Kevin Stenlund is currently centering the Panthers 4th line.

Exactly who I thought of as a possible comp
