Rumor: Patrice Bergeron to sign one-year deal with Bruins

[Bevans]

Make it all signing bonus and flip him at the deadline for a haul at 50% retention.

 

[wintersej]

What happens with Pasta? This is the final year of his deal. If they are in the playoff spot at the deadline, they aren't going to move him. Are they going to re-sign him? Is he going to want to re-sign there? Losing him for nothing would hardly help a potential rebuild.

They will re-sign him.

 

[BruinLVGA]

What we need is young players and draft picks, not a nearly 40 year old looking to inflate his personal stats.

This „nearly 40 year old looking to inflate his personal stats“ has gone above and beyond the call of duty for this club for two decades, have a modicum of respect, for f***‘s sake.

Imagine not needing the reigning Selke winner.

As if it being Friday wasn't good enough. This is fantastic news!!!

Pasta will re-sign with the team. I feel all of the contract talk has been overblown. Sure the Bruins would look to trade him if he did not want to sign a long term deal (they would be foolish not to) but I don't see that happening.

 

[jmelm]

They should. They aren't going anywhere this season.

Is that an early pic of Nuno in your avatar?

 

[tucker3434]

I guess the bruins aren’t dead quite yet. Makes sense to give it one more go.

 

[Djp]

Wow that really helps the Bruins if true.

actually it doesn’t.

now they woukd go to try and make the playoffs and then Pasternik walks. If he didn’t come back thry woukd be motivated to trade him.

could they still trade Pasternik?

Nope just a bad take here my man

You know, even though I'm a Canuck, I respect how Bergeron plays his game, so I would love to see him play more in the league.

"Inflating his personal stats". Every NHL player is increasing their statistics by playing in the season, so what's the problem?

 

[Alicat]

He's still a good faceoff guy, isn't he?

Ignore him. He's the only one on our board who hates Patrice Bergeron

 

[Djp]

its clear Boston needs to rebuild.

Pasternik is not going to resign there and instead go to a better team.

you don’t trade him he plays and walks for nothing.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Oh, wow. I wonder what line he's going to play in next season, though.

How is it clear?

50% of their Bruins forward signed contracts expire at the end of the year, they will have a ton of cap space.
Pastrnak rumors are just a bunch of bruins hate propaganda. Plus they're planning on moving 1 or 2 D's.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

The reason we are in this situation is that Sweeney didn't trade guys like Bergeron, Marchand, Rask when it was clear that the Bruins were not contenders

And when do you think that should have been seeing as that core was in the final as recently as 2019, I know that feels like 8 lifetimes ago because shit changed fast but it's not

1. Spell the guys name right. It's Pastrnak

2. It's already been reported that Pastrnak/Bruins will talk extension as soon as they are allowed per the CBA (July).

 

[TheDoldrums]

There goes an East playoff spot the bad young teams were hoping to snag

 

[ottawa]

Oh no, making the playoffs. The horror.

How about a scenario where pasta gets extended as rumoured? Insert mindblown.gif

Some of you whine about the dumbest things

And won the President's trophy the following season.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Oh and I admire players who manage to stay with the same team all of their career, even if it's the Bruins.

Yep. Certainly makes it an easier decision when your team is competitive throughout your career.

In his case, he became a UFA twice - once after winning the cup, and again after winning the President's trophy lol. Hard not to re-sign with a team like that.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

just delaying the inevitable full rebuild...

It would be nice for Bergeron to get another Cup before he retires.

 

[Esq]

Imagine not needing the reigning Selke winner.

Almost like trading a Vezina winner for a player you didn't want.

Type it with me P A S T R N A K.

Pastrnak will re-sign with the Bruins.
