Who was the loser the Habs got in return ?

Makes me always concerned if the management can't build an AHL team to make the playoffs/judge AHL talent.

Yeah, it's a pre-season goal, but it's a nice one and way better than anything whatever the tool he got traded for would do.

Legaré best season in the AHL is 19 points. I would not call him a AHL talent.

What about Jonathan Marchesseault?

Your assertion is only a supposition.

And Rainmaker is average height for a dman (6'2), not big, but average.

Average height for a dman is 6'1½

No, i calculated all dmen who played last season and it's 6'1.9/10 for dmen. 6'0.8 for forwards. 6'2.8 for goalies.

It was 6'1.8 for dmen in the previous season. The .8 is in centigrade (because I calculated total inches).

Edit: i checked my notes:

315 dmen, 23929 total inches=73.94 inch average

2×80
5×79
11×78
17×77
40×76
51×75
52×74
56×73
41×72
25×71
7×70
8×69

For old fans no. For new fans used to see the slow banana 99% of the time yes.

So... Neely can't count then. Or he didn't do well at his times tables when he was a kid.

Bad for Boston if Swayman sits out long. But good for rest of Atlantic Division

Maybe they can pay him in deferred money like those big brains in carolina

We need Boston to push Florida out of playoffs for our CGY pick. Anybody but Florida this year.

 

[Frankenheimer]

This kind of thing will effect future signings and player negotiations... Bruins seem to be falling into the trap of letting their success get to their heads.

Hope Swayman forces his way out and this marks a turning point in a long slow demise and painful rebuild.

I don't understand the situation. It seems to me Bruins have the leverage. Not sure how many teams, if any, would be prepared to offer Swayman a 64m contract right now. Everyone's roster is pretty much set and that is a big commitment for a goalie with 130 or so games. So if not the Bruins then what? And will the alternative result in a better contract?

 

[The Great Weal]

Yeah if I'm Boston there's really no reason to budge, it will be money out of Swayman's pocket soon enough. They might have the best defense in the league which will make things a lot easier for Korpisalo.
