Former Bruins Ex Bruin general discussion II

[Dr Hook]

The games is not on TV in my area so I didn't see exactly what happened but Linus Ullmark tweaked something during the 1st period tonight in Edmonton - he finished the period ( stopping 6 of 7 shots ) but did not return to the game in the 2nd period.

I just heard- turned on the Sens-Oilers to see Linus and found out he was out injured. Sucks for Ottawa, the Oil has gotten two past Merilainen already

Jesper seems like he took a step forward this year with the panthers. I'm not sure if his totals reflect that but I see him on the box score often i feel.

 

[Guelph Bruin]

Boqvist was a guy I wanted to keep ..... fast as hell, plays centre, defensively responsible and can chip in offensively.

Not seeing a lot of goals being scored by former B's. Course not seeing a log of goals being scored by current B's with the exception of March and Pasta.

Don't get why he wasn't resigned. Think he signed with Fla for $775k.

I simply think they had a plan for size in their bottom lines and Boqvist doesn't fit the big body forecheck hitting style they were looking for, too bad ...now they lack speed.

Agreed, and he was the victim of the numbers game to an extent too. Beecher was getting a regular role this season, they traded for Kastelic, signed Koepke, and there is McLaughlin they need to make a decision about this season, too. Then Frederic, Brazz, possibly Coyle and Geek for the bottom 6 (going into the season I mean) Not a lot of room for Jesper but I too wish they had kept him.
