QU! Bobcats!
I think the Islanders desperately need someone like Krejci, but we don't really have the cap room unless you guys take a ton of salary back and I'm not sure we'd give up the assets to get him (i.e. Barzal, Beauvillier, etc.).
Hayes would be a welcome addition since we need right handed shots/natural RW's, but again not sure what we can give up other than one of our forwards that have a higher cap hit and a draft pick to make up the difference.

The Jackets would have interest in Krejci, but I don't see how a deal would be made unless Boston would be interested in taking back Hartnell or Dubinsky. They could add a significant + to one of those two mentioned, (Sonny Milano + Gabe Carlsson, basically any prospect not named Werenski or Dubois).

I'd love to get Krug on Edmonton, but don't see how it could happen given Boston's lack of depth on the blueline. Larsson, Klefbom and Nurse wouldn't be on the table, Sekera has a NTC, and none of our other blueliners would be of interest to Boston I wouldn't think. Unless they really like Davidson, who flies under the radar, but he is injured right now so I don't think they would consider him either (it would be Davidson and a large+, not straight across obviously).

Genuinely don't think the Bruins can afford to trade either McQuaid or Krug right now. With K Miller out till mid-November, and McQuaid hurt as well, you need to remember they already have two rookies (Carlo and O'Gara), and a 2nd year guy (Colin Miller) playing in the top 6, and Joe Morrow as their 7th D, so their depth isn't great.
Maybe once K Miller is back they can gauge the market for McQuaid since I'd rather see Carlo/CMiller/OGara play anyways.

No thanks. Boston has a fairly good cap situation as is. No need to screw it up with a cap dump or 2.

Pretty much this.
Hayes is pretty much worth nothing, I'd be pleasantly surprised with a mid rounder.
McQuaid is perfectly find on the bottom pairing, hes just forced to play up a pairing.

Boychuk just isn't what the are looking for unless comes with a time machine that takes off 6 or 7 years, not at the cost of Krejci.
Boychuk was probably my favorite player when he was in Boston but this isn't what they would be looking for now. They might take Boychuk if the Islanders retained salary. Even then, his play has obviously slipped drastically and with that contract he just isn't what they are looking for. Boychuk is a great team guy and
I wish him nothing but the best but this isn't it.
I'd do Krejci for Hartnell, and Milano. If you add Carlsson or Ryan Collins, that would be even better.
B's would still have Bergeron, Backes, and Spooner down the middle, but would upgrade their wing position, and add a few more prospects to the pool.
I'd like to see them deal McQuaid as well. Because they have McQuaid & Kevan Miller, and I'd prefer to see Colin Miller & Carlo keep getting time this year.

bostons motives if trading these guys
krejci... mostly a cap decesion... if spooner figures into plans as a center, krecji becomes expendable... boston would want a top 4 dman back at minimum and would have to be on a better contract
krug... boston has a number of offensive skilled but undersized lh shot dmen. if boston doesnt believe krug is a good 20 min per night guy, they might flip him to get a good 20 min per night guy.
hayes... is signed for next year and losing his spot on bruins depth chart. alot of rumblings hes unhappy and chances are he needs a change of scenery... boston might let him go for a more expensive guy coming back as long as its just a 1 year contract
mcquaid... is victim of a numbers game. is still a great option as a bottom pair dman except hes overpaid and on a long term deal. so is kevan miller. boston doesnt need both guys. i believe boston would take back either a pick or a dman on a 1 year deal for mcquaid
bostons cap is good this year but very risky next year so moving a longterm contract from this list for cap relief probably would make some sense

Once we move Miller, I'd be very interested in Krejci. Top four D, or at least proven, would be hard for us to justify, as we just lost Hamhuis to Dallas and made a trade for Gudbranson, but we have had a few younger guys with potential come our way, which might necessitate a move. Tryamkin, Hutton, Stetcher, Larsen....these guys are all found money. Who is Boston's favourite D from the Canucks?

None of them for Krejci. Even for all the **** he receives, he's still a #1 Center.

Fix the defense. Find a least a few more players that can put the puck in the net.
From the Bruins I would do this deal, gives the Flames a big RS winger and the Bruins recoup some picks they traded at the deadline also opens a spot for when Vatrano comes back or prospects.
I didn't mean any of those players for Krejci...I'm saying their emergence could make someone in our top four, ie Edler, available.
What would Bruins fans want from Toronto for Krejci?
From the Leafs' POV, they can use use a veteran presence behind Matthews for the next couple of years and keep Nylander and Marner on the wing.
Looking at Matthews - Krejci - Kadri down the middle would be downright scary.
Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
JVR - Krejci - Marner
Komarov - Kadri - Soshnikov
Martin - Holland - Brown
Looks amazing.

If so deal is in place for ShattenKirk
ShattenKirk for krejici?
As a basis
Let's say ShattenKirk signs for 6.875 for 7 years

Too much coin for Shattenkirk. I don't think he's worth that contract. And at that cap hit I'd hope Boston make a move for Trouba before Shattenkirk.
