    Trade Sweeney and Neely these rumor mills do not help anyone, especially on the team. if the locker room is confused they will not compete as well, but that is an internal issue, not for the talking heads to decide.
    why do the Bruins front office only go by expectations of players as opposed to projected value based on actual stats and other known metrics?

      We have to be reasonable with ourselves. If the Bruins continue to have a bad season, come trade deadline, and if Brad Marchand is not signed to an extension, there is no doubt many teams would be interested. He’s a UFA next summer, I know it doesn’t seem like a possibility at all he could leave but considering he’s a UFA and the Bruins aren’t doing well we have to keep that in the back of our minds. Because after Steven stamkos left Tampa anything can happen. Plus you have to consider the contract negotiations, Don could screw that up and not give him what he thinks hes worth

    Maybe they can get something for Sweeney the Weeney. Remember that shit always rolls downhill so let go straight to the top and blame who’s really responsible for such a horrible start. Both Neeley and Sweeney need to go to get this team back to a contender. They are the ones who created this mess so it’s open them to take responsibility for it. They keep naming scapegoats to be responsible for the shitty start but they created the problem and they should be held responsible.

    Beating a dead horse, but when one or two players don’t perform it is on the player. When it’s the whole team, it’s on the coach. Is Monty a good coach? Yes, but he wasn’t shining this season and mgmt moved on it. That is what mgmt does.
    Bradley is not leaving anytime soon. My guess is to see how the team looks as the smoke clears and make decisions from there. I think B’s issue is more mental than about skill. Lots of proven talent and good young prospects - if you can spark it. Good luck Joe.

    I don’t really get it. There’s only a small handful of decent players who aren’t anchored to the ground by a 700 year NTC (Frederic). I fear that there is not much value in terms of pieces they can move without causing a bigger problem than it solves…..I worry about Don Sweeney making moves just for the sake of proving a point and extending his job. Gotta be careful. I guess many are ready to get rid of Frederic but I’m scratching my head. He’ll be cheap, fits the DNA and quite literally EXPLODED the past 2 seasons. This is a slump. I hate it. I predict he’ll move him out for a bad return just to make a move……and trading Marchand would be horrific for the culture. I agree. Don’t let Sweeney BLOW UP the team if he’s not even going to be here. Dangerous position to be in.

    The problem. The Bruins do not have the cap space to bring in a top 6 Forward. As much as I would love the Bruins to trade Coyle, it is not very likely. Reason, What team would want to trade for a player making 5.25 million a year who has averaged 15 goals a season for the last 5 seasons. Unless you package him with assets like they had to do with Backus a couple of years back. Maybe that is why the Bruins were showcasing Merkulov for a couple of games, and then send him back down even though he was successful in his three games.

    • @user-mf4pl8tl9z
      @user-mf4pl8tl9z 7 годин тому +1

      Coyle is on pace to score 20 points if he plays all 82 games a drop off from 60 points the yr. before. He’s going to turn 33 next March and gives the buying team an easy low ball offer or argue that last year was a fluke. otherwise it would take a team overpaying for him as a best case scenario.

    Ouch. You brought up losing DeBrusk for nothing. That one still stings. I did like him on the team and was sad to see him go. Having said that, it irk's me they let him go for nothing. Specially since it was mentioned he had sold his home before the season ended. They knew he wasn't coming back and still didn't move him. The only thing I can see is they hung on to him as a rental for a playoff run.
    Marchand is retiring a Bruin, just like Patrice did. Frederic will be a deadline move if he's traded.
    I would not shed a tear if Carlo left. He is not the elite player management seem to think he is. Between him and Lohrei it looks like the Keystone Cops out there.
    The other rumour is Zadorov back to Vancouver. They miss him, we hate him. If there's any truth to this one you'd have to move him for someone at his price point. How about Zadorov for DeBrusk. Can you imagine? It would actually help both teams and NHL pundits would lose their minds. 🤣

      Should've counted as shots on goal for Linus because he knows how to only leave the post!
      I like how Joonas keeps his blue paint clean, he's tracking the puck better with more play...
      I don't even know that Linus can be that same linus again - or if he can surpass his own records. We don't know.
      So I'm not going to compare those two.
      Jeremy is younger, he doesn't belong in their category comparing either.
      I wish we could have all three goalies!
      But two of them would not be happy!

      @TheFoolintherainn have you seen ullmarks numbers in ottawa? You know he's still injured. I don't think Linus will play 4 years with ottawa. His injury keeps coming back. Ullmark is not playing well in ottawa, when he's playing. Swaymans a dud. And he's cancer in the room. Teams not playing like a team because they don't feel like a team. The swayman making the goalie market was more important thst swayman playing with his team. Gross held the bruins hostage for swayman.

    Shop him!! He isn’t captain material anyway !! Patrice was a true leader and captain !! Class act . Just like the legend Ray Bourque !! Trade Marchand fire Sweeney !!

      Marchand is a good captain. No one can compare to Bergeron
