The bruins brass are cowards the way they treated Lucic. The bruins used to develop hard nosed players, now they go looking to other clubs, they are definitely not the big bad bruins of the past. I've been a fan since 1977 they have always been a tough team up until the last decade. This team is drastically different than the 70s Cherry teams...They are soft pushovers and it pains me to say that.
Look at the rest of the league… the game is trending to a faster higher skilled league No room for enforcers that skate with cement in their skates anymore that’s just how it is
@@mike8099m the bruins have fighters already Frederic, Maroon (if he resigns) and lauko you don’t need much more than that We need top six players not more grinders ideally a top six power forward but that’s probably not gonna happen
Actually Lucic's season came to an end because of a broken leg. He never returned from LTIR. His court case, and entering the players assistance program certainly didn't help. But players have entered the assistance program and not been on LTIR so that doesn't seem to be what saved Boston his cap hit. Him not recovering from his injury seemed to be what did that. And the Bruins already replaced Forbort when they traded for Peeke it was literally the entire reason they did that trade. Makes no sense to me to bring Edmundson in. What does he bring you that Wotherspoon doesn't? A higher cap hit? Wotherspoon had an excellent year. He can play either side. He doesn't cost a ton, and had limited enough NHL experience that I'd expect him to improve despite him not being a young prospect.
A problem is that the NHL has zero transparency while simultaneously pretending to care. The Ian Cole allegations that were swept away, as well as Valeri Nichushkin’s arrest with a wasted prostitute. It’s very typical for them to acknowledge things when the shit hits the fan, then pretend to care very much and promptly forget that it exists.
@@daynasafranek7807 I don't really see what you are getting at. I mean for 1 the league doesn't get involved in those situations and they frankly don't have too. Teams have morality clauses in contracts. When these things get made public the teams can move off those contracts. The NHLPA can fight it. Wrongful termination especially if the court cases find the player innocent of accusations or have charges dismissed. But yeah the teams do have options.
That is not true at all. The Bruins released a statement during the season. And now the off season has rolled around they have not only said he will not return but his wife is divorcing him. The fact you all support and act like he isnt a complete goon on and off the ice is mind blowing. But I guess that is what fandom does. Blinds you unacceptable things. I dont care that he beat his wife, mah hokey tem
@@heathclark318 The statement the team made was that he wouldn't play again this year. That was true. But as I stated he had a broken leg. He was on LTIR and he never came back. You don't get cap relief for a player going into the assistance program. So that had nothing to do with it. And you don't get cap relief for not playing a player who's able to play. So that wasn't it either. The fact he never returned and we continued to have him on LTIR means he never successfully rehabbed the leg injury. I made no statements about his court hearing or how the chargers were dismissed. I don't need too that's all a matter of public record.
@@exturkconner He didnt come back due to the criminal investigation. You can cope and write a novel all you want. He was removed from the Bruins due to the domestic violence. Plain and simple. Everything else I could give a rats arse about
I hated watching Pastrnak fight or Marchand getting punched in the face by Bennet. We have no one to take care of business. Maroon is not the amswer. We need size and we need at least 2 guys that can throw hands. Jake Middleton from the Wild would be a good fit.
Bruins needed lucic in playoffs his fear factor against florida would of been big and he can still contribute no they get maroon no impact no toughness no fear factor
Lucic needs help he got the help that could be the reason for his number drop a healthy SOBER Lucic could still be a force I think it's gutless of the bruins management to walk away on a top 100 great but stood by craig mc all ill say both sad one worse! Oh well Donnie must of forgotten the forgives he gave his old teammate
I don't know I think he had two pretty good seasons in Calgary before the wheels fell off. He didn't fit in Edmonton that's for sure. And he certainly wasn't worth his contract anymore. But he wasn't a worthless player when put in the right situation.
Edmondsen sucks, he had 2 good games in Toronto, sucked in Washington, and he's 6ft5 but lean and skinny and only plays tough once in a while. The game he had v Edm and McDavid, that is a once a year occurrence. And he's always hurt. Go have fun signing him.
before you bash Looch look at what he's gone through since leaving Boston. The teams he was traded to never follewed up on what they promised him...that combined with the death of his Dad were enough to set him in a tail spin. Everyone has bad times in their lives. He just happened to be in the public eye because of an over zealous Boston Police officer. Ya he was wrong but there was no need to be dragged through the mud.
I think Boston was giving Lucic the opportunity to retire as a Bruin. He hasn't contributed anything anywhere for five years.

Sign Matt Martin

Lucic and Forbert were never in the plans for next year
Lucic should be facing charges, the fact the Bruins and their fans are even talking about its mind blowing. But again its Boston
Prayers that Big Rig gets signed
you support women beaters? perfect Bruins fan. I guess you thought Jack Edwards wasn't a stumbling bumbling homer either huh lol
@@tobmello1 he means pat maroon... geez you look stupid huh lol
Sad. Would have been nice to have Lucic in the playoffs to tune up guys like Bennet, Tkatchuk and Montour to name a few.
Bruins needed lucic in playoffs his fear factor against florida would of been big and he can still contribute no they get maroon no impact no toughness no fear factor

Forbort is a no brainer.Always hurt. Bye
Looch still a B's whatever what happen
he fits perfectly, wife beatin idiot. So funny to see the Bs go down 2x in a row v Florida lol. And poor Jack Edwards, the king of all homers
every team has rumours about who is going to sign. hurry up july 1st.
Lucic has been a waste of money ever since he left.
He can’t score, can’t fight, and quits when ever he wants to
I don't know I think he had two pretty good seasons in Calgary before the wheels fell off. He didn't fit in Edmonton that's for sure. And he certainly wasn't worth his contract anymore. But he wasn't a worthless player when put in the right situation.
@@exturkconner he quit half the times on his shifts when he was with Boston.
He never lived up to his billing as Nelly 2.0
Would like them to get tanner jeannot
Maroon also needs to go, too slow
Edmondsen sucks, he had 2 good games in Toronto, sucked in Washington, and he's 6ft5 but lean and skinny and only plays tough once in a while. The game he had v Edm and McDavid, that is a once a year occurrence. And he's always hurt. Go have fun signing him.
Maroon did nothing 😆 the one situation is pathetic
That is news Lucic is not coming back
Milan was huge disappointment
Morally? Because on the ice in his limited time he was very effective.
2 pts in 4 games before the injury.
@@exturkconner yes morally
