Just make a trade Sweeney/Neely.......DO SOMETHING!!!!
Even the most low profile move can shake the room up a bit, or we can keep rolling the same *** roster out there over and over and over and over expecting things to change
Chara, Backes, Krejci, Spooner, McQuaid, K. Miller, Liles, Beleskey, Moore - all these guys could have some value to contending teams and should be available for any combination of prospects and draft picks
I still believe in Carlo and love that the team has him, but I can't believe we won't part with him to add Landeskog......if we didn't have McAvoy, Lauzon, Lindgren, Zboril, O'Gara int he system that would be one thing
At least we know have a legit playoff performer on our team when we miss the playoffs again.
I wonder who will the Bruins look to make a deal
I've given up thinking that they have any clue, any fresh ideas at all. Sweeneely is/are hunkered down hoping that they'll have it to 2017/18, and if they can get the fans to continue paying crazy money for tickets until then they just may make it.
Personally I can't imagine paying any of my hard earned money to watch this boring, depressing ****show. I barely noticed Backes tonight, and didn't notice Krejci at all during the whole game. Krejci for one seems complacent and WAY too comfortable. IMO, Rask hurt his groin again and needs someone significant to back him up. Krejci's apathy though is really starting to **** me off! ...FFS DO SOMETHING TO SHAKE UP THIS TEAM!!!
Another reason I would have made the Carlo for Landeskog move.....you gotta give up something substantial to get something substantial....our lines could look like this
Marchand - Bergeron - Pastrnak
Landeskog - Krejci - Backes
Vatrano - Spooner - Czarnik (speed line and Vatrano & Czarnik were dynamite together in Providence)
Schaller - Moore - Beleskey/Hayes/Nash
You would still have
Chara - C. Miller
Krug - McQuaid
Morrow - K. Miller
Liles
and still have O'Gara, Grzelcyk in Providence with all the D prospects on the way
and there's lots of talk about Shattenkirk possibly signing here
I like Carlo a lot.....I just think a trade for Landeskog is a good hockey trade and as much as I love Carlo, I don't see a franchise defenseman or even a multiple time all-star, just a good quality defenseman (nothing wrong with that).....and I think Landeskog would be a fan favorite, he's 24 , proven 20+ goal scorer consistently, leadership qualities, plays gritty.....it would be a good hockey trade
I'd rather have Duchense but at this point something needs to be done for sure. The problem with trading Carlo is that (again) we don't know if McAvoy is going to leave BU at the end of their season and even if he does if he'll be good enough to be NHL worthy. Maybe he'll need a year or two in the AHL? I really, obviously haven't got the answers but it seems like neither do the people who get paid to have the answer, have the answers.
Who knows what happens with regards to free agency......personally, I think the team has a wink wink agreement with Eichel to come to Boston and is gearing up to either trade for him or sign him as a RFA after next season for huge money, just a gut feeling that he'll be in a Bruins sweater by 2020
How about (since I'm fantasizing out loud) a blockbuster of Duchense AND Landeskog for Carlo, Hayes, Kevan Miller or Kevin McQuaid our first rounder this year, and any 3 prospects not named McAvoy, JFK, Lauzon, Bjork.
P.S. If I could get away with it I'd throw in Krejci too instead of 2 of the prospects.

Team needs a wake up call.

Like they did with Backes?Like they did with Vesey...?
The Bruins organisation is not like it was 4-5 years ago where it had a good reputation and players where interested to come here. From what I've heard this has been ruined last couple of years. The structure and culture around the team is so important, it is not only the team.
Like they did with Backes?
UFA: Honey, I got an off from Boston. Think we should accept?
Wife: Boston? BOSTON? (Voice rises) You expect me to pack, take the kids out of school, sell the house and move to......***********Boston??
UFA: But they offered me six large, five years, NMC throughout.
Wife: Get out the suitcases! Always liked that city. Nice museums.
