I would take Mike Commodore with a huge grain of salt.
Hes been wrong on more then half of his scoops, and very late on a few others.
It wouldnt surprise me if he was sitting in his office with a bottle of whiskey, chuckling to himself as he trolls away.

Honestly, I'd consider re-signing Vrbata if he's fairly cheap.

Trust me.

You only want impending UFA contract year Vrbata. Trust me.

He is two different players; one with a contract, and one playing for a contract.

Avoid.

Avoid.

Avoid.

1:30 and 2 trades, wonder how many B `s fans will still be frustrated at Sweeney for doing nothing or little if this continues as expected?

Not sure what Montreal is doing?

Allow me to explain, Claude realizes you can't be powder puffs and win in the playoffs so they are getting bigger and tougher to go along with their smaller skilled forwards. Will use Bruins as punching bags as they roll over them in playoffs if Boston doesn't respond somehow. Doesn't have to be by trade, call up Randell, move one of the extra D so you can have options up front.

Mike Commodore's twitter is kind of hilarious.

It's like a teenage boy yelling out insider stuff. The word insider is used loosely.

Fair. I'd take him over Hayes and Beleskey at this point though. Well, i'd take a empty gatorade bottle over them...

I'm fine so far. I've seen no players moved that address the specific needs of the Bruins.

1. No rental.
2. Top six winger.
3. Top pairing defenseman.
4. Cheap 3rd line RW non-rental.
5. Upgrade on back-up goalie.

When one of those goes down and the Bruins are not involved then I think it's fair to discuss criticism of Sweeney.

I won't be frustrated. I'd be frustrated with teams around the Bruins who are neck and neck getting better while the Bruins stand pat.

Ideally what i don't want to see is a 6th round pick going for a #6-7 d-man

Im not sure how I feel about it to be honest.
Before everyone started making trades I was content with staying put as long as we couldnt get our hands on Landeskog without trading carlo/mcavoy.
But the way things have progressed with basically all our rivals making moves, getting stronger, it would be nice to respond in some way, considering that it feels like we have something really good going on since Cassidy.

Oh, he's better this year and would put up great numbers to get his next contract...


...and then disappear until UFA days loom. I was just against signing him to anything. Add in him being a rental then, and I'd rather save the assets to swing for Landeskog in the summer if today can't happen.

why do anything other than a backup goalie
all of a sudden we are a stanley cup team ?
small trade for vrbata sure but nothing crazy , very little to gain big picture in my opinion

i sound negative but we are playing good as a team now , see were it takes us and keep are prospects . To many trades in this teams past that we gave up to much to get little in return .
