The value would be moving that contract and freeing up some cap space so there is the ability to add a need.

I miss Miller and McQuaid. Not heavy weights but scary as hell. Quaiders smirk was... edit: McQuaid was a heavyweight.
Looch should’ve been this season but...

He was drafted by the Islanders in 2015.
Signed by the Bruins as a Free Agent on July 1, 2023
Wotherspoon is turning into a good 3rd pair guy and another late bloomer- or maybe finally getting a real opportunity to show what he can do. Either way, I’d send Lohrei back. I love Lohrei and he is going to be a really good D man for us but right now he is still a gong show in his own zone too often. He needs some more seasoning and good habit- building in the AHL. Wotherspoon can do the job and he deserves to stay on the roster.
Both very gritty players. Miller was Quaider lite.
Adam was plenty heavy weight for me.
Looking like an early candidate to replace Forbort next season
Adam was definitely a heavyweight in my book.

I don’t mind Gryz but that weak attempt on the game 7 ot goal is symbolic of his playoff career. Like maybe put the body on the line and lay out to block instead of turning sideways? Marchand's attempt was way worse however and kinda pathetic. Griz's effort around the net right before the goal was pretty bad as well
or his little dance with ullmark in game 5 overtime?
Doesnt matter. Every playoff year since he has been on the team, Gryz has done something stupid.
Ill never forget when he deflected Bertuzzos weak muffin shot by Rask in game 2 of the SC Finals in 2019. All he had to do was let Rask see the shot. Instead he tries this half assed block, and ends up with the perfect tip goal to tie the game at 2.

Ya, you’re both right. Not sure why I added that part.
Quaider had that ‘unhinged’ element that must’ve scared the crap outta guys and could hang with anyone.
I agree.
From what I hear Looch is working out. I have no idea what that means but one can have a bit of hope....
What I like about Quaider was that he was a decent stay at home d man and an excellent enforcer. I did not see him as dirty at all but watch out if you go after his team.
He was also nice looking!

For some reason NESN would always list Mcquaid at 197lbs even though he was clearly much bigger.

I think early in his career he was sub 200, but you could tell he was probably 210-215. That said, overall he's a pretty lean guy, obviously strong as hell, though.
I think Wayne Simmonds has always been listed pretty light, too. I remember seeing like 6'2'', 175 for him.

Of course they were wrong, I stated a couple of times that Wotherspoon didn't need waivers because he was a Emergency loan.
But I'm not Dom, so I don't know any better. Lol

Bergeron for Hart
I'd extend him on the one way deal now while he's nice and affordable.
doesnt matter waiverd or not. he is in my opinion a top 3 LHD on this roster and shoild not be sent down. unless we make a trade for a middleton type player.
