Player Discussion Trent Frederic

[Gordoff]

Feeling like it'll be after Thanksgiving no matter their record.
Sinden (that SOB) would've made a big trade and water-boarded the
coach by the second loss.
Times are a changin'

He picks his spots, which is fine to a degree. It’s hilarious how many people in here use the “fake tough” when describing players on certain teams, but I feel Frederic falls in that same category. He went after a non fighter after a hit, again, don’t hate it, but if that’s Reaves you best bet he’s not doing that.

He fought another non fighter after Bergeron was hit 2 years ago, he clocked him, again, glad he did.

He jumps in when he knows he will overwhelm someone. I get that, I don’t even hate it. What I do hate is when the games get their most intense, Frederic goes missing. He was awfully quiet against the Leafs when they made a few questionable hits.

He’s doing absolutely nothing this year. He’s been awful. If he was producing, I wouldn’t dog him as much as I do.

He fought the guys who cheap shot or layed out Bergeron, Poitras and Marchand. I guess he's spot picking the guys who have it coming.

He's absolutely goes with guys he totally can't overwhelm. Don't know where that's coming from.

Ultimately, I'm saying I don't see much intensity from him. That's all.

I think he should be more involved against teams like Toronto, Florida etc. I notice him a lot more against the Seattles of the world.

I think he's a valuable piece if he can find his game, but right now it's atrocious.

Agreed, he's fought some tough guys. Tom Wilson twice, Englund twice, Marcus Foligno, Jake Middleton, Liam O'Brien twice, Nikita Zadorov, Josh Anderson, Tanner Jeannot, Givani Smith. That's a solid fight card for any light heavy.

If he made an angry face more often think folks would cut him some slack.

I'm more concerned about the rest of his game this season- him and others.

I fully admit I'm harder on Frederic than others because I just expect more out of him, especially this year and his playoffs against Florida.

Trading Freddy and not Coyle or Carlo would be completely pathetic.

 

[TobanWest]

f*** did I do?!?

You know what you did

Trading Freddy and not Coyle or Carlo would be completely pathetic.

Maybe if we got Gary Leeman in return but what about a young high end player

 

[Absurdity]

Trading Freddy and not Coyle or Carlo would be completely pathetic.

No one will want Coyle at his cap hit with the way he is currently playing and with one more year on his contract. He could maybe be moved in the off-season.

The Bruins aren't moving Carlo since Peeke is out with an injury and is week to week. McAvoy, Wotherspoon, and Sweezey/Mitchell isn't a recipe for success at RD. Maybe when Peeke comes back and with someone else stepping up sure, but there would be way too many question marks right now if the Bruins moved Carlo. Earliest these two are moved if at all is at the trade deadline.
