Proposal: All Bruins trade rumors/proposals: 16/17 Part V

[22Brad Park]

I honestly think Hayes is just bought out this summer. Only 1 year of roughly 816k for a cap hit.

Cannot waste no buyout on that deal.

 

[dredeye]

Cannot waste no buyout on that deal.

Agreed. Just waive him and deal with paying the salary for another year.

Pretty sure the Avs wouldn't do it

Jimmy Hayes for Joe Colborne

Think Bs would have to add much? Becker or Clarke?

Both with almost identical contracts (JC makes 200K more) same term left, both in need of a change of scenery. At least one of them wants out (so I've been told)

It's very curious. Haven't watch Colbourne much this year, but liked what I saw that last year in Calgary and was surprised they didn't re-up him. Versatile forward, looked like he was becoming a decent middle-six option, maybe more suited for 3rd line.

spell check sometimes corrects posts made on tablets... gotta love technology but maybe you would find something to complain about it too

Yeah, my phone is always changing what I write, so I feel your pain.

I'm guessing that special someone is

I'd make that trade (Colbourne for Hayes).

 

[Blowfish]

I'd make that trade (Colbourne for Hayes).

How about Hayes for Sloth?

 

[BruinDust]

How about Hayes for Sloth?

I don't get it.

 

[Flannelman]

I don't get it.

Maybe a Goonies reference? Implication that anyone is better than Hayes?

 

[CptxMorgan]

Not a reference, we're gonna literally get Sloth from the Goonies.

Jimmy Hayes for Joe Colborne

How is his defensive responsibility as a center? If he has been bad, Julien isn't going to use him

Well he did play here under Julien at an earlier stage of his career.

But, deficiencies aside, wouldn't he still be a better option than Jimmy?

No, to tell you the truth. I don't like playing players in a position that is not their true position. If he can't play center for a Julien team then he isn't worth it. Just my opinion

That is why I am all in favor of trading Spooner for a winger.

 

[BruinDust]

Maybe a Goonies reference? Implication that anyone is better than Hayes?

I've never seen Goonies, guess that is why I missed that.

Whoever this Sloth is, yes he would be better than Hayes.

 

[TheBigBadB]

Isn't a Sloth also an animal? A very slow animal...maybe that's the reference

He's seems to be a decent face-off guy, 54 and 55% the last two season, but has dropped to the 40% range this season, quite a drop, I don't know the reason.

As for his overall defensive game, I'm not really sure.

In the case of getting rid of Hayes, beggars can't be choosers.

 

[CDJ]

Pretty sure the Avs wouldn't do it

Jimmy Hayes for Joe Colborne

I wouldn't mind that

 

[UrsusArctos]

Sloth is Zach Hamill maybe.

 

[Flannelman]

Wasn't that dude a defensive end in the NFL in the 80s/90s?

In a second... How does Colborne feel about Julien and/or the possible new coach next year?
