I hated the signing, but we can still be friends, but I must warn you need to start listening to me, I am the smartest guy in a small room.Because I loved the signing and was really excited about it and thought he was going to be a critical part of a team that was going to be good
We'll always have Pasta, but even he isn't immune. There was a whole raft of posts earlier this year from a few folks saying trade him, he sucks, floats, etc.

Contenders or not, Bruins won’t settle for status quo approaching Trade Deadline
The Bruins appear to be gearing up to make some changes to their roster.
www.dailyfaceoff.com
Speaking with more than one source, I do get the sense the Bruins have kept tabs on the situation with the Nashville Predators. As I wrote about last week, the Predators are preparing to sell off some pieces – both in the way of rentals and those with a year left on their deals – between now and the trade deadline. While I can’t speak to any specific player the Bruins may have had interest in, one source did say the Bruins are “looking at center and some skill on the wing.”
It’s unclear what exactly the future holds for the Bruins and if they do actually embark on a retool, but I don’t get the sense that it will be strictly gutting their own roster. Bruins management is clearly keeping tabs on available players around the league and seem prepared to pounce at the opportunity to “improve their team,” as one person said to me. A “retool” is subjective, and in the Bruins’ case, it may just be a bit of a roster overhaul while trying to remain competitive.
Let me add something, you also learn that those players that suck, all should be traded for first and second round picks

Yep, Miller could nix a deal to Boston and it is possible that Sweeney decides he can't pay the price because while the roster players won't break the bank, he may draw a line between giving up our 1st or one of our few good prospects.
Fwiw, we know that Miller hasn't told Vancouver "it's the Rangers and that's it" because Carolina has been talking to him directly. That doesn't happen without his permission.
I don't love the thinking that says if this 1 guy doesn't get us to the finals then we shouldn't do the deal. He gets us a step closer. He can be part of a quick re-tool.
I do agree that they are waiting to see where the team is at the deadline, but I think people are going to be disappointed with the difference between what a re-tool means to them and what it means to the front office.

Start of the season under Montgomery he was their #3 defenseman behind two guys who get Norris votes. Right now he's playing their #1.

disagree. He wouldve helped the powerplay. Helped with breakouts. And wouldve gotten carlo off the ice when Mcavoy got back. Plus only 775K

Locker room cancer is a term that seems to follow that guy around from place to place to place. Hard pass.

If DeAngelo signed here I'd personally fly to Boston immediately to punch him in the face.

How about Cole Perfetti. Kind of lost in Winnipeg but definitely has the skill. Is a true C as well. Frederic for Perfetti? Jets need some snarl(pretend it’s last years Fred). These are the types they should be targeting imo.

They'll trade for a 35 year old who scored 30 goals 12 years ago.
Ideally, I would like to keep John Beecher. But they'll probably either cut him loose for peanuts or bury him in Providence.
3 reasons a Boston Bruins immediate retool is a no-brainer
If there was one game that has summed up the Boston Bruins 2024-25 season to date, it was Wednesday night’s 5-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils. After grabbing a

Hmmm I like. Fair trade. We could use speed and play making ability. Good find.

He's a dime a dozen player. I don't think he does anything well other than win the odd faceoff. I've seen a better set of hands on a digital clock.Ideally, I would like to keep John Beecher. But they'll probably either cut him loose for peanuts or bury him in Providence.

I think the bruins have found their PP QB, in lohrei. Their pp has gotten a lot better as of late. The puck movement is so much better than when McAvoy was there. If anything they need another sniper someone who can put the puck in the net, but im thinking it'll be just a matter of time until the goals start coming.

The big problem with not acquiring Miller is that there isn't many top6 centers in free agency this offseason. Unfortunately, this is their best chance at one
Oh OH! you are in trouble now, here comes the heat, you said a bad word. I said it had my mouth washed out with soap. God, forbid we get someone that can help out offensively, maybe even the PP, and does not cost 8 mil
Lots!! This team needs a legit #1C. I believe it would change the whole complexity of this team. Also need consistency in net. Injuries don’t help.
