I think he’s nuts if he has a deal to seriously fill some holes and doesn’t do it because he won’t trade a first. Tells me his goal is to make playoffs each year and not win the cup. This year and maybe next year are it in terms of this cores window in my opinion.

Just glad to see him smiling to be honest.
You always worry about guys who've had their career cut short due to injury and how they handle things after they're done.
imagine trying to fight looch? my god the guy looks like a bowling ball
I truly hope a trade for Kreider with a reasonable extension involves Heinen and a pick or prospect.
That would put the Bruins, on paper, back at the top of the pack.

Brings a tear to me eye. What could’ve been if Horton stayed healthy. That was such a great line. This is what the Bruins need right now, a genuine, can’t miss talent in his prime. When I look at Horton, the 1st thing that pops in my head is Kreider. Kreider & M. Foligno would instantly make this team harder to play against.
Wonder if Kreider would rub off on Kuhlman a bit. They both play a similar game, though Kreider is bigger, more aggressive and a better scorer.

Count down ...
Giving up a first for Palmeiri is a no brainer. Dude lives in Boston and connected to many bruins. He will resign after his contract is over. Not so sure about giving up a first for Kreider.
Kuhlman is a player I would like to see included in a trade package . Not sure what his value is, but I think he could be an interesting piece to a non-contender team. I feel there is simply better winger options in the organization going forward.
I don't think Kuhlman can fisnish. He's got the speed and certainly gives it his all every game, he just lacks the goal scoring touch.
Players I feel could or should be used as trade chips: Moore, Zboril, Cehlarik, Kuhlman, Fitzgerald ,JFK
Players I am comfortable trading in the right deal: Heinen, Kuraly, Nordstrom ,Wangner
Think one of Grzelcyk, or Krug could be moved if the return works

I am with you
I think allot of teams are going to hold onto their first
Am I correct the Bruins do not have a second rounder?

They have all of there future picks except for a 4th this year, part of Mojo deal. Still, think they'll do all they can not to trade a 1st, prospects moved instead.

the more I think about it the more I'm warming up to the idea of a Kreider, Krejci and Kuhlman line. Kuhlman has looked awesome since his return. Small sample size I know -- it could just be adrenaline -- but he's so fast and a tenacious forchecker. Krejci flanked by two guys with that much speed and energy should help keep him engaged and I have no doubt he'd make use of the space and opportunities they create.
The way I see the Palmieri vs. Kreider debate is that Palmieri likely bumps Kuhlman out of the lineup where Kreider could bump Heinen (or at least make him the odd man out). I know Heinen has the more impressive resume than Kuhlman, but I think Kuhlman and players like him are more of what this team needs right now. The speed of Kreider and Kuhlman in the lineup together (with Heinen possibly out) changes the makeup of this team significantly. I think this team has a tendency to take it easy for long stretches and I think an injection of speed an energy in the lineup will keep everyone more engaged more consistently. The hitting from Kreider will help with that too, and he easily just replaces Heinen/Debrusk on PP1.
I don't think Donny trades this year's 1st. He loves 1st rounders & supposedly this is a deep draft. I think he easily will part with his 2nd & 1 roster player & any B prospects.

Easier from up here
I'm surprised Krejci wasn't crying - remembering how good he had it, playing with two highly skilled mesomorphs.

Listening to all the experts talk the last couple of days, the only player on any of the "trade lists" that will garner a first rounder is Kreider. And even then they were split on whether they'd pay it.

Kreider house 20 miles up route 1 to Garden
he’s the one rental that I’d think can be resigned
not sure why Rangers just don’t sign him
not a lot of miles on him - he wasn’t playing 200 games a year as a kid
he’s getting better and as a power forward I can see him producing 2-5 years past what others do
he’s a horse and a natural

another small benefit of landing Kreider would be he could tutor Senyshyn a bit.

I with ya. Love to retain KRUG but that all depends on what he's looking to get paid and term of that cap hit.

absolutely have to retain krug at this point. After seeing what justin Faulk got last offseason, Krug could have got you more. Letting him walk for nothing after that would be a complete disaster.
Id rather kreider than Palmieri to be honest. Then try and get another big defenseman if miller isnt coming back
kreider-krejci-??? who goes here??? I still would like to see Heinen on first line RW before and if we trade him. I am not set on keeping that first line together.
I think in the end we are best getting kreider.
Id like to see Marchand-Bergy-Heinen
Kreider-Krejci-Pasta
Debrusk-Coyle-Kulman
4th line
