Confirmed Trade: [TOR/BOS] Brandon Carlo (15% retained) for Fraser Minten, cond. 2026 1st round pick (top 5 protected), 2025 4th round pick

[HabzSauce]

Bringing in players that may struggle in the regular season but when the refs put the whistle away is a positive thing.

How did he look overall last spring? Genuinely asking

 

[seafoam]

If he's a Matt Stajan that's a pretty good get on it own. Stajan had a long successful career. I don't get all the Carlo hate. I quite liked him but he doesn't play to his size which is what I think annoyed most of us.

Man, Stajan is a throwback~!

How does Carlo compare to mid 2010s chara?

They both have the letter C in their names

 

[quietbruinfan]

Carlo is decent but needs a talented quick d partner. I suppose Morgan Rielly qualifies. Beware though he is turnover -prone, attackable and diminished due to multiple concussions. Good guy and I wish him well though.

Fraser Minten playing his first game since the trade.
At the 2nd intermission, the Providence Bruins are leading Springfield 4-1.
Minten has 3 goals and 1 assist.

Er, it was his 3rd game with Providence (after going scoreless in his first two), but good for him.

Definitely has a decent shot and gets it off pretty quick, just pretty rare that he makes such opportunities for himself.

Carlo is a good fit for Rielly when Rielly was good. But he’s not, and hasn’t been that good for a few seasons now.

He’s actually been like the lone bright spot since the trade deadline for the Leafs. Sporting a 60% expected goal share while most of the team has been getting caved in.

No 1sts for 3 years is tough

His third game. His first was against the Marlies. Still, monster game from him.

Yup, it will he.

 

[Mr Nogatco]

Yup, it will he.

They didn’t have a first the year they drafted Cowan right? Dubas flipped Sandin to the Caps for Boston’s 1st rounder. Not sure what Leafs players fit that bill now though (well regarded young player whose progress in the org was apparently blocked)

Yeah, that is correct. The Leafs could trade for a 1st rounder.

I’m not saying he’s bad I’m just saying I don’t think he can’t salvage Rielly at this point.

 

[Coach Parker]

I always thought Carlo was a good fit for Toronto and even posted that the Bruins owed the Leafs for the Kaberle trade.

This will be a win-win for both teams as the needs are now flipped for each franchise. I hope goes all the way to the Finals and lifts the Cup for the Leafs and Minten finds a permanent home in the NHL with the Bruins!

Misty with 4 points feels like he could be a #1C

Thank you Toronto
