Boston Bruins 24-25 Roster/Cap thread VII

[Shoebottom88]

Wait, Pastrnak got KO'd?

Pretty much when Tkachuk got him to fight.

 

[Shoebottom88]

Didn't realize being dirtier made one a better leader.

Their dirty rats are better than our dirty rat. We got outratted lol. When you think of Florida, you think Bennett & Tkatchuk, then Barkov maybe. That’s their ID. Their leaders are better than ours if that’s the case.

According to Moneypuck, we are ranked 24th out of 32 teams in expected goals for. Our expected goals against is surprisingly decent at 13th lowest in the league.

I defended Swayman's contract demands, but he's had a poor start. A .894 save percentage doesn't lie.

Swayman ranks 10th in 5v5 goals saved above expected. He's been getting lit up on the PK where he has the most goals against and the 2nd highest expected goal against. That's not a huge surprise seeing how piss poor our PK has been this season.

 

[Thomas 11]

How about T Fred & The Geek for a struggling Pavel Buchnievch from St Louis? Freddy goes home and we get another top 6 forward. Not sure what else would be added, but I’m sure Freddy would resign and he fits with the core group in St. Louis.

Swayman ranks 37th in 5v5 goals saved above expected.

Korpisalo ranks 28th, fwiw.

Please people do not mention Zegras. Bruins fans would dogpile him instantly.

Well to be honest these games are not what I believe many of us have enjoyed in the past, so if what you say about Zegras and the fans to be true, and I agree, at least we would have something to take our minds off this , ........I won't say it. I would look forward to him and Marchand interacting, might be fun.

Another 8 mil center for 8 years, why would I not be looking forward to that.

I don't know why you're getting a different list than I am...

Edit: My bad, my list is for all situations.

 

[UncleRico]

So basically our goalies have been roughly ok but the teams absurd lack of discipline it’s killing the team

I pass on ROY, he is slower than Dave Andreychuk. We need to add skill and speed to this team.
Mangiapane is off to a slow start in Wash, trade Geekie for him Caps would have to retain some salary to match the AAV.

[bruinmann77]

[DarrylshutzSydor]

[PB37]

Let's see them try

Zacha -- Poitras -- Pasta

Marchand -- Lindholm -- Brazeau

Kopeke -- Coyle -- Johnson

Beecher -- Freddy -- Kastelic

 

[dugg133]

Let's see them try

Zacha -- Poitras -- Pasta

Marchand -- Lindholm -- Brazeau

Kopeke -- Coyle -- Johnson

Beecher -- Freddy -- Kastelic

Monty won't even put Poitras on PP2, zero chance he gets top line duty
