Not sure there is another banging down the door with offers for him either. he's another guy who if they were to consider trading him would be far more likely at the draft

Where maybe they get a second, most likely a high third.
I don’t know why this is all so funny. Yeah they had $57k in cap space (well more once they LTIR guys), but other teams seemed to have managed. Regardless, if you decide you need a centre then go out and get a centre. Not that PLD is the answer, but Van wasn’t happy with Lindholm. In any event, other teams seemed to have managed to have identified their needs and did what it took to address them. Not sure why Sweeney should get a pass.
I agree the LTIR thing needs to be fixed so that they cannot circumvent this rule. As for the GM, I was not just talking this deadline, VGK always seems to get the big fish and guys that Bruins were interested in: Stone, Pietrangelo, Eichel, Barbashev, Hertl ETC, credit where it is due they make the moves other GM's fail do make.
I have been a Bruins probably longer than you have been alive. As for VGK, it was not just about this year, look at the past 4-5 years, they always get a big name.

PLD is a dog and not the good kind. Plays when he feels like it. Brain dead on the ice for most of the time. He forced his way out of two teams. LA gave him the bag for 8 years and they are already trying to get out from under him before the end of Year 1. That should tell you something.

We can get out of the east with our superior goaltending and play super D. Monty brains and we can go far. Let's go!

After letting it settle I’m changing my F to a D. He got the style of players needed but it reeks of a bigger deal or two falling through and making some desperation moves today to save face after the plan B guys were no longer available. Time will tell, at least they have McAvoy and Pasta locked up.

Papa Luigi Demarro he’s electric but lazy some nights
He didn’t want to go out west so far from his family. Felger is an asshole if he cant see that.
Pierre Luc Dubois. Skills out his ass but a diva
Well, no stud centre but it wasn't like they had many options. Oh well, the boys will settle down now and we have two amazing goalies. Anything is possible. Injuries play a huge role too.
Obviously other teams were bolstered today. The Bruins aren't really expected to go far but I still think anything can happen. I will enjoy the ride, short or long, I just hate for it to end at all. The summer is very long when you hate the weather....lol

Bruins Sign Joey Abate to One-Year, Two-Way Contract | Boston Bruins
BOSTON – Boston Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney announced today, March 8, that the team has signed forward Joey Abate to a one-year, two-way contract through the 2023-24 season with an NHL cap hit of $775,000. Abate, 25, has appeared in 40 games with Providence this season, recording two goals

First of all, Ullmark has a NMC and good for him for having it. And I harbour no ill-will at all towards him for invoking it. Good on him for doing so. But I hate this argument. These guys are highly-paid professionals. If they can’t move across the country for 3 months to play in the Stanley Cup playoffs for crissakes then they should just retire and stay home with the wife and kids. Again, I have zero issue with Ullmark here, it’s just that argument/excuse that I despise. Really? You can’t be away from the wife and kids for 3 months? Seriously? To play in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and perhaps win a Stanley Cup? Also, I don’t even know if that’s the reason for Ullmark. Nor care. It’s the argument that I have a problem with.
Edit: plus he probably wants to win it here with Swayman and good on him for that too. I’m glad he invoked his nmc, if he in fact even did.

Easier from up here
How can you be so sure they won't continue to rotate even in the playoffs? Just because it's not done? Rotating goalies all season is uncommon and that has worked. Maybe they won't try to fix what isn't broken. Or at least until they have to.

Imo that’s the only way Ullmark’s value is salvaged for a decent off season return. It’s almost imperative you play both Swayman and Ullmark in the playoffs.

I’m surprised they didn’t cut it for a Sox preseason broadcast.Not only that, they cut it short so they could literally run an encore of the trade deadline show from the beginning

Awesome, that's a fantastic use of contract slot #49
I believe we are at the point of the season where they can only use 4 recalls from providence the rest of the year
Markstrom didn't get moved either....
Jacob Markstrom trade rumors highlight how rarely star goaltenders move mid-season
It’s been more than 10 years since a star goaltender with term was moved in a mid-season trade.
