BeBrusk, Heinen and Forbort.

Here before the Swayman offer sheet.

 

[Paulinbc]

Don't know much about this guy. But the term & AAV can't be too bad.
He's an LD? And another boston guy?

 

[Thirty Seven]

He's big and gets hit by pucks.

Seems like a nice guy

 

[I am Bettman]

He is a net negative on the ice in any situation other than the PK. He will block tons of shots, but that may just be because he is too slow to clear the puck.

 

[M2Beezy]

Didnt him and Hoglander try and kill each other a few times. Should be interesting practices...

Feels like a pretty poor replacement for some of the size they lost with Zadorov and Cole. A lot slower and less effective in every way.


Between Forbort and Desharnais, and Juulsen still around as well...if feels like they are now fully stocked up on #7 Refrigerators. Not sure why that was necessary, but anyway...

The best thing about Derek is his last name

 

[Son of Petter]

Tbh I think he’ll be better than Cole was for us.

 

[lawrence]

looks like we just signed a dude because he's tall and something we are looking for? (bunch of tall guys)

i'm guessing this signing doesn't happen if we signed Deharnes first.

*Darla.

His dog is famous and will be missed here in Boston

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

He’s really really really really bad
