Player Discussion Trent Frederic III

[Bruin4]

yeah, the guy that gave him all that money.

Is it considered a let down when you never expected much ?

 

[Mad-Marcus]

Elias is up there

Elias's numbers project to be sliding like last years. Swayman's slide is more surprising and ultimately more impactful. The Bruins were winning in spite of Lindholm's performance. Swayman is no longer a given to make a critical stop.

Two thoughts.

1. That's terrible, hope he heals up well for his own health and longevity.

2. Didn't we trade for Bert and Maroon when they were week to week?

Unfortunately Don Sweeney can't trade Frederic to Don Sweeney.

Hopefully there is another GM out there who isn't in a rush to see his new acquisition.

I mean what a blunder. You can say "won't change any plans" all you want, but I would bet teams are way more gun-shy to acquire this player now. At the very least his value went down when they can't really afford that to happen.

Fits the "whatever can go wrong will go wrong" with this team at the moment. Anyone else they wish to offload in a trade should be shutdown until the deadline.

well there goes the possibility of getting a 1st round pick - as slim of a chance as it may have been
based on his play this year. hockey gods hate this team right now.

don't know for sure, but looked like he was favoring a knee/leg (right side?) when leaving the ice ... i didn't say anything because everyone was saying he got elbowed to the head.

Yep, certainly doesn’t look like like any head contact there.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Right on the chin you can see his head and helmet going back...concussion 100%

 

[LouJersey]

Fantastic job by the GM. shouldnt have put all his Bruins matters on his to do list while worrying about the Four Nations

The guy has 4 points since New Year's. He was never getting a 1st round pick.

I think his left knee hit the boards bouncing off McCabe.

He's in a walking boot

I know people who wear boots on their heads.

that video stops short - in game coverage showed Frederic trying to get up off the ice clearly favoring what looked like his right leg ... i could be wrong, but that's what i recall
