All Bruins Trade Proposals/Rumours X

[DitClapper]

With the system so stocked with high potential prospects, I don't mind throwing some picks around. Hoping for a move or two here to add depth to the forward group. This team is more worthy for help than last years.

Burrows, Vrbata, Purcell, Vanek, Sharp, Iginla, Stafford, Ribeiro, Purcell, McClement, even a guy like Gionta. Bickell is making a comeback, he'd be a nice fit on the 4th line. I'm just throwing names out there, don't get all riled up.

 

[DitClapper]

For the people at home. A proven playoff performer.

 

[Hali33]

Oh I'll be getting plenty riled up if Burrows ever wears this jersey.

Just **** that.

 

[Gnome17]

I wonder if Vanek would fit in nicely with Krejci and Pasta.
I wouldnt mind a deal similar to what Anaheim did with Eaves for Vanek, trading a conditional 2nd that might become a first if we go far.
Its a weak draft anyways so, and we have so many prospects that are looking like theyll become NHL players.

No ****ing rentals.... that is all. Be smart Donny. Don't get fleeced or do something short sighted

i think it's coming - in fact, i expect 3 trades. a top 9 forward, a top 4 defenseman, a backup goalie. maybe khudobin saved his job, but maybe not. i also expect joe morrow to be moved in one of those deals. who are they targeting? pick any of the top 10 rental forwards and likely they're in on a lot of them. i think oduya, b.smith, maybe kyle quincey are D options. just don't see a major deal coming at the deadline involving a young player with term (like landeskog).

But do they have to be rentals?

Just say no to rentals.

Find players we want beyond July and make it happen. Otherwise, don't pay for guys that are walking in July. Haven't we learned our lesson? We tried last year, and the team actually played worse with the rentals.

 

[JoeIsAStud]

The one spot is top 2-3 line winger

They are getting someone

Sharp Vanek

Seriously this team could be a pain to anyone and if I'm Sweeney I'm upgrading the Cehlarik and Hayes spots

No Carlo but I'd go back to Sakic with a group for Landeskog

Boy that is a wide variety of players. Vanek can still play. He'd be interesting.

Sharp is a rotting corpse. Just a horrible hockey player at this point. he makes the team worse if he is on the ice.

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

If the Canes are looking to move Faulk they should have no trouble finding a young center better (and younger) than Ryan Spooner.

Just to clarify, would not expect it to be a one for one deal. Other pieces in prospects and or roster players would have to be part of a package.

 

[DominicT]

Aside from Lando, I think you can concentrate on #18 to #26 on this list as a potential "rental"

[sarge88]

Roussel would look good in place of Hayes on the third line.

Doubt Dallas would want to move him, but you never know.

Ugh.

I don't see Doan waiving for Boston.

Honest question to those who may of seen him more than me.

How bad is Iginla now? Is he worse than or better than Jimmy Hayes?

I know he's not even close to the player he once was, and a bit of a liability 5 on 5.

But if he's an upgrade on Hayes, could it be an option? Considering reports are no team has called on Iginla, the cost to acquire might be next to nothing.

If it was 6 weeks ago, I may have suggested getting him almost exclusively for the 2nd power play unit, but not the way the PP has looked lately.

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

A behind the scenes look at the activities for NHL team management leading up to the trade deadline. One point speaks to the moves that are made have been in the works for weeks in advance. Interesting read.

Agree, I don't see the need of him on the PP. Looking at Unit 2, who does he bump out? Cehlarik is the easiest choice but I like what he's brought and don't want to overload that unit with too many right-handed shots, which it's 4 R and 1 L when Colin Miller is in the line-up if Iginla is in a Cehlarik off the PP.

He wouldn't kill penalties, so he'd strictly be used 5 on 5.

Probably a bad idea overall.

Wait, when I look at the list it's Perreault and Enroth. Was the list updated or were you just talking about Doan as an aside?

Just commenting on a couple of those guys in that 18-26 range.

 

[DitClapper]

I think the goal should be upgrading from Schaller and Nash/Hayes.

Dom- Given what you know/hear re: Lando, do you see any of the parties bridging the gap/compromising to get the deal done? It seems there is real interest on Sweeney's part but my concern has always been that this was just a market test for Sakic with no real interest in trading him.

Now its Sheahan and Enroth... was it Perreault when Dom posted? Perreault is a good player, but not sure how he fits long term.

 

[BruinsFanMike82]

Dom said #18 to #26, not #18 and #26.

18. Riley Sheahan
19. Mathieu Perreault
20. Alex Burrows
21. Kyle Quincey
22. Drew Stafford
23. Shane Doan
24. Valtteri Flippula
25. Eric Fehr
26. Jhonas Enroth

 

[NeelyDan]

whole lotta no thanks if that's the case. blegh.

I'll take #22 and call it a day. He'd having a terrible year, but has been a pretty good player until recently, and he is a guy who gives you an honest night effort on a continuous basis.

I wouldn't overpay for him

 

[Coach Parker]

Sharp Vanek

Agreed.

Those two holes they have look so much more manageable if one of them is filled (Krejci's wing, top pairing RHD).

AND with how this team is playing, I would even entertain the idea of a Shattenkirk rental if he has literally killed his market value trying to force his way to New York.

If I can get some value for Morrow or Liles and take that value and pair it with a mid prospect and pick for help on that top line to finish the season, that's a win and the Atlantic is really Boston's for the taking.

Boston was at 35-1 odds to win the Cup so when I see those long odds I put money down!

Time for Sweeney to put something down on this core.

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

I want Landeskog so bad. I'd definitely give up a 1st and a non-McAvoy prospect. But since that doesn't feel nearly painful enough, it's probably not close. What else might they want?
