For the remainder of this season low low cap hit and you play him behind Zadarov and Lohrei, but yea if he was right shot d for sure, but if he was he'd probably never would have hit the waiver wire or would of been scooped up well before the Bruins had a chance.
I disagree.
Chara Bergeron and Rask ? What about Pasta, Marchand Hamilton Lucic, Krug. and Krejci ? I guess at this point Ill just agree to disagree with you on Sweeney and ill keep my fingers crossed if he remains the GM im wrong and your right, about him being the right choice moving forward.
Other teams overpay for that exact usage profile every single year.
Carlo can still be a very good shutdown defenseman he has a very active stick but the times it happens is few and far berween. He panics a lot under pressure and just fires the puck blindly around the boards. He also has mental lapses at times in coverage, but he’s a RH d-man and their always valuable and maybe a change of scenery will clean out some of his cobwebs.
There was a time when there was talk about him being and recently also, and I was all in a younger 100-point player, all signed, that interested me greatly, but now I read that he can be a bit lazy, which brings in the JT Miller, rants, and at time's disinterested, so no I must admit I am a little hesitant, should I be ?
He should be on the block, but god only knows with this genius we have at the helm.
If Sweeney could move Lindholm, that would be his shining star of GM career, because see no way in hell that player or contract gets moved, unless Sweeney eats a lot that contract.
Lindholm starting to turn it around. Maybe we should wait before to write him off completely. Its only 1st year of his 8 year contract.
Hes been the target of many this season. Not saying its unearned but yeah.
I would be fine with that, I just have trouble determining this kid's value.
I'd rather keep him and hope he continues to trend upward over the next couple seasons. This has been a rough year on everybody but I think Lindholm has enough of a toolbox to rebound more than the average bear
So should we wait until year seven of his deal when he will be 36, do you think he will be better than. I have said it many times before it is not as much the player, but what the player got for a contract. I also said at the time he was signed that contract will not age well, you are talking year one of his contract and he did not hold up to it. I guess Lindholm is different than any other player, he is aged first than you get what you paid fo, I have a sneaky feeling that is not how it works..................Bottom line awful, awful, awful signing
No doubt it's a terrible start. I'm banking on Elias knowing that and lights a fire up his butt and plays some solid hockey. Let's see its early for me to put him in the recycling bin. Some good news he is like a point a game last 5 games I believe.
Too little too late, but I will not give him total blame for a lost season, he is just part of it.
Will see I'm happy to see him to getting hot lately . Hopefully for him and team more to come.
So: The player always produced the result when given the opportunity, but wasn't always given the opportunity. In Boston, the players were always given the opportunity, but almost never produced the result. Once.
Yes, he absolutely did, but even with those guys those teams sucked. Sweeney took a two-time playoff DNQ with cap issues and re-shaped it into a Cup Finalist in 2-3 years.
He's been mentioned on ESPN among other sites as a player drawing a lot of interest.
Time will tell as always. Let’s see where those replacements take the bruins moving forward.
