Speculation: Pierre McGuire thinks Shattenkirk is headed to the Bruins - but was wrong

[Gordon Lightfoot]

Good luck, NYR. I hope you lose in the first round.

 

[Mainehockey33]

I really hope DS wasn't offering him nearly that much. Wow

 

[Silva]

4 years is great term. 7M too high but he was overpaid in AAV to compensate for shorter term

 

[KrejciMVP]

Oh well. Knew deep down the Rangers would grab him. Maybe Donny can find some pond hockey players and sell them to us as elite prospects

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Thank goodness. Awful contract.

 

[Dellstrom]

Holy **** that is BRUTAL. Thank God.

How is anyone upset that Boston didn't just pay him 7 million a year? Like honestly?

 

[KrejciMVP]

Still hope. Otherwise tank baby tank

It's ok. They're the same people who would laugh at Sweeney for actually signing that contact. You whine either way, win-win.

Hope for what. This team doesn't need him at 7+ a year. He's a good player, but not for that money.

Sometimes the best move is the one you don't make. Just say no to Shattenkirk. He's a traffic cone in the playoffs

I never really got to see him play until he was on the rangers and once I did I was quite underwhelmed. I also think AV is a mediocre coach these days, stubborn and refuses to adapt at times to the competition so it could fall a bit on coaching as well.

Huh? Why would the Rangers tank

Reported 3x3 for Daley in Detroit.

[Gee Wally]

Please be true!

 

[KrejciMVP]

Who wouldn't want to live in Boston over NY?

 

[Deal Law]

Who wouldn't want to live in Boston over NY?

Hipsters, millennials, ********** and Kevin Shattenkirk, apparently

 

[Marley]

In other words, let's see if anyone else is willing to give more per year. Smart play by Shattenkirk.

Holy **** that is BRUTAL. Thank God.

How is that brutal? Low term. Cap hit right where expected.

I would gladly take this deal on the Bruins and trade both McQuaid and K.Miller.

Krug-Shattenkirk
Chara-Carlo
XXX-McAvoy

Shattenkiirk is one of the best PP guys in the league and has one of the best pts/gm of any active D.

Would take that deal on the Bruins if RD or puckmoving was a need which is not.

AGREED. Entirely.

Only the Rangers do that, remember Gomez. Wait but they still came out ahead, stupid Habs.
