[northeastern]

f***.

I love DK. Huge part of the bruins playoff pushed.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Great player. Hope he has a fun time back home in the Czech Rep

...yup, you got there before I did...

 

[Spring in Fialta]

A hell of a player and a great rival.

 

[steveat]

Hockey is big back in Czech/Slovakia. Their fans easily rival us. May he break many Czech records with Jagr.

Palffy went back to Slovakia and had a few stellar seasons...I think he got like 92 points in 40 games or something like that.

 

[DangleCity]

my prediction for the season as a Bruins fan:

Their top line alone is too good to be a lottery team. They should make the playoffs fairly comfortably, but a Cup is most likely off the table without some significant moves

 

[UConn126]

Does Boston move on Dvorak now?

I think they're done with moves. It'll be Bergeron-Haula-Coyle up the middle for top 9, unless Studnicka comes into camp and kills it, which I don't think anyone is expecting.

 

[Cynick]

Easy to root for the guy. Even in his message, I found myself cheering him on for his choice and what he wants to do next. Seems like such a thoughtful decision.

 

[SyZyGY]

I don't think teams are going to allow him to clear waivers

I think they would if they know he wouldn't report

 

[Midship]

f*** your team :S

Is this reddit or HF?

 

[Dexter Colt]

He gonna sign with Kladno and play wit Jags??

He's from the east so Kladno is not in his neighborhood. I imagine he'd go to Olomouc, which is his local top league team.

Tough look when the only excitement you get is from other teams losing players

Losing is Leafs fans thing so of course this is exciting! Just another form of losing!

 

[Thirty Seven]

100%.
Bruins have absolutely nothing to offer though, so if Sweeney somehow manages to pull this through he is a f***ing wizard.

I can already see Don calling "Hey we can offer you Jake DeBrusk and 2 2nd's please help"

Don't forget Wagner as a "sweetener"

 

[Sevendust]

As a leafs fan: Lucic, Chara, Krejci gone.

bergeron and Marchand are next

Still Leafs will choke and the Bruins will keep on winning playoff serieses.

As a leafs fan: Lucic, Chara, Krejci gone.

bergeron and Marchand are next

So's Matthews.

Pretty terrible off-season for the Bruins outside of the Hall extension.

Didn't Hall look good (or "good") with Boston this past season though just because he played with Krejci? And now Krejci's gone. I remember specifically a goal against the Sabres where Krejci dangled Dahlin & Jokiharju up the stands, to serve Hall for an easy tally. I don't think you should trust Hall to carry his own line to any great heights in the upcoming years.

 

[BruinLVGA]

This sucks major balls. Best of luck to David tho: a great player and a gentleman. Will never forget him.

 

[Bruin4Life]

Krejci been saying this for many years. All signs pointed to this when he signed the last contract.

Best of luck Krejci. I can see Krejci back in a few years in a last hoorah.

 

[powerstuck]

Best of luck to David Krejci. Thanks for all the memories !

 

[EastVillageBlues]

Maybe Bozak signs in Boston?

 

[Tuggy]

Downfall of the Bruins continues. Bergeron will be next.

They had a great run but it's coming to an end.

 

[Bandit]

Nah, he's right. I actually identify as "the whole Leafs fan base" so he is right.

What are your pronouns? Choke/Choked?
