how many of you feel like little steven van zandt in the sopranos? this team is impossible to figure out,
but they always pull you back in.

Go on a 7 or 8 game win streak and I'll feel "pulled back in". 2 games? I've seen this one before.
Yes because when they play like last night, you see what they could be doing more consistently. On the other hand, they also feel like a team that needs most everything to go their way to get a win and that includes really good goaltending. And that is not going to happen most of the time. They aren't a solid playoff team with their B or C games which is what you get more often.

You do know that was Silvio imitating Michael Corleone from The Godfather?

pacino was a beast but SVZ was hilarious
with that said, they lose 4-1 tonight. i passed on picking up free tickets.

4-1 loss?
So you obviously didn't get pulled back in then.
That's okay. Michael Misa will make a great Bruin if they can get that second overall pick.

You forgot to add the sarcasm emoji. The people that picked team Canada should all be fired leaving him off
.Bruins need a player like this in the system badly.

Dom Question do you think the Brass holds onto their First Rounder?
also do you see small moves as sellers or Buyers

I absolutely think they should hold onto their first round picks. This squad as constructed is not worth investing in. Now, if you told me that that pick could bring in a young, promising player under the age of 23, I am all ears.
Whether the Bruins think that is beyond me though.
I also think they should be selling off anyone they don't see in their future especially UFA's they can't get under contract on their terms.
I don't believe internally they are at that point yet. I am sure they've made a lot of calls covering every possible scenario and will wait until the last possible moment to make their decision.
I do think playoffs can provide valuable experience for guys like Swayman, Lohrei and Poitras. At least with Poitras you can send him back down to Providence for a playoff run.

Realistically if the Bruins stay 10 games over 500 at home, they need to reach 500 on the road to make the playoffs and 92 pts.
If that's next season so be it.
But it is more like they will continue to win more than they lose at home and push that number to 15 games over 500

Bruins, after tonight, have 12 home and 14 away games remaining ... they have got to start winning on the road. Otherwise, March could look very ugly.

There is an excellent chance that the Vancouver Canucks will have plummeted, been the centre of the largest drama all season, traded their former captain and top scorer, made another trade, signed that player to a 6 year deal and turned the entire season around before...
...Sweeney makes a single move to improve the roster. Unreal.

They actually have the possibility of being the best team to not make the playoffs. Meaning they get the worse draft pick of the teams that didn't make it (16).
Trade all the ufa's even Marchand, also Coyle, Korpisalo, Carlo, E.LInholm(waives NTC for contender), McAvoy as well, retool.

Count down ...

This team with a healthy Lindholm, Swayman playing like last season, and a few moves at the deadline, are 100% a playoff team and I think can be dangerous.
Get us to the 4 nations break, get healthy, Sweeney needs to get off his ass and make this team better. There's nothing scary about a 7 game series vs Washington or the Leafs. Boston can compete with both, especially if we add some skill into the top 6.

Not for me, McAvoy is considered a top pair Dman around the league, but I don't think he is as good as some think. I am not saying trade him for picks , I meant trade him for a top young talent. If you can get a legit young Center, someone like a Stutzle or similar type, I would make that move.

Problem is if they coast for the rest of the season, they will have a pick in the teens. thats not gonna cut it.
They need to trade players that will get them some first rounders in next years draft.
If they can get a few first round picks for Marchand, Frederic, Carlo, Lysell, Brazzeau, ... Then do it.
