Boston Bruins 24-25 Roster/Cap thread XV

[22Brad Park]

Today's game will help determine the direction of this team.
I believe they should be in sell- mode. If Brad wants to go and compete for a Cup you move him. He can resign in the summer if he wants. Time for Coyle to move on. Make a decision on Frederick and Brazeau. I would move Korpisalo and bring up DiPietro. Target players like Lawson Crouse- Utah, Trevor Zegras- Ducks, or Dylan Cousins- Buffalo. They need some upgraded talent. I would bring up Lysell and Merkilov as well.

It's been pretty clear for a while the direction this team is heading Serious lack of talent on this team & a crappy system below the big club.Sweeney does not have the smarts to fix this mess.

Olivier a UFA

True, but I think Brazeau is also, either way Olivier would at least make this team a little tougher and more entertaining, they could work on re-signing him as well.

I always want them to make the playoffs.

Only thing that can’t happen is losing to smelly leafs.

I know a guy that might help. Well done Sir DOM.

Is Georgii Merkulov Ready for a Legitimate Shot with the Bruins?

I always want them to make the playoffs.

The problem with being in the playoffs is that it means Sweeney will sell off another 1st rounder like he usually does.

I’d be fine squeaking in if it means we can still be sellers and keep our picks, but I see the logic in bottoming out for a bigger sell off and better picks.

Why does he hate Boston? Bad experience?

Why would he leave Denver? Bad experience playing with a top 5 talent?

 

[Hookslide]

Buy low on Crouse.

But definitely buy

 

[Bruin4]

But definitely buy

Why definitely?

 

[Hookslide]

Why definitely?

He has 3 seasons over 20 goals, he hits, he is young, and he has a contract, that is certainly livable. Now what is happening to him this year is a surprise to me, but with what I mentioned previous, definitely worth a look see.

Ok so your definitely buy quote meant definitely buy Crouse not definitely buy in general?

Look I, want to be in the playoffs, as Dennis Bonvie said, it is the best hockey, now making moves for younger talent like a Crouse and with a chance to make you better this year, I am all for it, I don't want to get older and next year you need to address that problem again. I will admit it is a tightrope to walk saving this season and looking ahead, but that's why Donnie gets the big bucks.

I don’t think Crouse is a difference maker or better yet the type of player who guarantee's you the playoffs this year. The Bruins need a bigger fish and imo he’s not worth the assets it would cost to get him and I’d rather hang onto those assets for a bigger fish or actually give them a shot at the NHL.
