All Bruins Trade Proposals/Rumours XI

[VanIsle]

Doesn't Vrbata have a weird bonus structure to his contract? The further a team gets into the playoffs he gets a pretty big bonus that adds onto the cap for next year? If so, I wouldn't want to deal with that if I were the Bruins.

CONTRACT NOTE: If Vrbata plays 30 games $500,000 in bonuses. If he reaches 20 goals or 40 points he’ll earn another $500,000. Also can add up to 1,250,000 more in play-off performance bonuses

I fear the Habs now...

No Kidding.

If it was joel OTTo in his prime and jamie BENN then I'd be worried.

Instead it's crappy old Steve Ott and Jordie Benn so I'm good.

 

[C77]

I really think he can turn it around. Would be a buy low situation with low risk IMO.

I agree. Kulikov has been injured this year.

Could be a good move.

Queue Mason getting traded.......

 

[Coach Parker]

His two best career years were in the middle of his Phoenix contract and the first year he signed in Vancouver, so no.

So, I watched him in Vancouver go through the motions and play like he was playing MobileStrike between shifts.

Vrbata would be hated by Bruins fans regarding his effort and drive.

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

Proportionally I mean -- not a big enough upgrade just a patch. Vrbata on the other hand is an actual upgrade for the top 6 so I'd be OK with that if it's a cheap price.

This year is more the year for bandaid rentals but last year makes me want them to sell off Liles at minimum.

I'm not so sure about that.

Pastrnak, no.

Backes... questionable. Since Cassidy took over, the top 6 has been pretty solid. I'd be hesitant to mess with that. Vrbata for Hayes (positionally, not value), I'd take that, but only on the cheap.

2 hour warning.

Yeah, and the team at the end of the year pays it all. Hence Coyotes trying to move him ASAP.

 

[Coach Parker]

Great quote.

I wonder of Landeskog prays every day to be a Bruins as well?

 

[Bruinfanatic]

He's a good kid

Don't worry your not going anywhere kid.

 

[Sheppy]

Honestly, the best part of the deadline is the random trades that come in after.

 

[TheBigBadB]

Yes, but if they retain Liles as well, then my guess Chiller becomes the odd man out. Do you really want to do this again? They did it last year with Miller. I think he has earned his role.

 

[Number8]

This kid just gets it. I know business is business, but what a nice thing for fans, ownership, management, and his teammates to see.

 

[Mount Kramer Cameras]

isn't that hoe we got Liles and Stepniak?

 

[VanIsle]

I love C Miller, why do the Bruins not love him so?

Kid can skate shoot and play D as we saw yesterday, I just don't get it?

 

[Fonzerelli]

Hope it's not true... with so many teams in on him we are bound to get fleeced

The Boston Globe's Kevin Paul Dupont speculated on what the cost might be to acquire Vrbata, tweeting that a package involving either a second and third-round pick -- or a second-round pick and a prospect -- might be enough to seal the deal.

Love to see that. Good thing he's got nothing to worry about

 

[Fenian24]

I agree, I like the way the D has played. Keep one of Liles/Morrow, move the other and if you need depth bring back O'Gara for a look. They have a good group of forwards, some tweaking and they would be very good up front.

Bruins have Edmontons 2nd this year from PC and no 3rd unless they are for next year?

 

[Coach Parker]

I love C Miller, why do the Bruins not love him so?

Same. Love him as the future #3-4 in Boston as the 2nd pairing RHD. Last night was a perfect example of his skills:

1. Goal after jumping up in the play.
2. Great breakout passes.
3. Great clean hit.
4. Carrying the puck out of trouble.

This kid is turning a corner in Boston.

When have facts ever stopped dupes from throwing s**t against a wall for a story.

Cannot trade the Oilers 2nd.
