Speculation: The Bruins and Jeremy Swayman are far apart in contract term (length) and dollar amount.

Dipietro is hardly AHL talent.
Bussi is disappointing but even he is borderline #3...
How to date yourself as a hockey fan...

Jump to page 38 about a debate about Swayman and his contract talks with Boston. See the name Dipietro and automatically jump to the conclusion a poster trying to point out the risk of signing a younger goalie to long term big money (before reading the entire post).

Ummm nope, different Dipietro... I'm not the only one who had this though process, right, RIGHT?!?

I don't really see the danger here, does anyone say "he's not an NHL goalie" no, he's at worst, an average goalie. He isn't 28/29 or anything.

So he underperforms and you trade him in 2-4 years with a small bit of retention, or not. (cap will also be up by that time)

starter number 1 quality goalies are at a premium, and we haven't seen much in the pipelines anywhere. So I dont' get it.

8X8 Seems like a no brainer. NMC ONLY or 20 team NTC for 2-3 years if that's what he's asking.

Seems like next no risk here, aside from cap considerations.
