Hold on to our picks. Hold on to our cap space. Hold on to our RD depth. Keep canvassing other GMs for a trade for a big, young 2C. The right opportunity might come, or might not.

‘The summer of offer sheets’: NHL execs and agents on why a boom could be coming this offseason

With a rising cap, so-so UFA class and the Blues' recent success poaching RFAs, the conditions for offer-sheet mania are in place.

Depends how whacky the offer is.

If it's $12mill x 7 then they'd definitely take 4 1sts from Utah.

If it's $9.5mill x 7 then I'm not sure if they'd want our 2 1sts , a 2nd and a 3rd.

If the compensation is any less than that then they obviously match.

I don't see any team offering $12 mil. I think even 9.5 is a big stretch.

I wouldn't offer Knies anywhere near those numbers. Great potential but plays a very enviable slot in the lineup. Just like to point out Bobby McMann has 20 goals in that group!!!!

Sign us up!! Odds are they would match or even come after our players but he'll of a lot better than going after Pronget type crap. I like says we aren't dog **** anymore

I don't think Boston wants to do a full rebuild at this moment. They still have Pastrnak, Swayman and McAvoy to kind of head their team for the next couple of seasons and those guys are all in their primes. If Boston was interested in tearing it down completely I'm sure they'd consider it but they probably want NHL ready prospects/young players rather than prospects who are a couple of years away and picks.

With NMCs, they can't do a proper full rebuild. Geekie must be wondering where the Bruins are headed? Traded Marchand Carlo, and Frederic plus missing the playoffs? Being a RFA and 1 year from UFA qualification, does he want to commit long term?
