Thread: Small Guys

If Carlo is getting moved, it's for an asset, a top 6 forward or center. Garland and one of your C prospects or work a deal around Boeser (Carlo, Lysell, and a 1st for Boeser and a D prospect)

First, how did Tuch wind up on your team? Second, deal, Tuch for Ullmark is amazing.

Thread: Defending cup champs

While McLeod is a good player, I don't think he really projects beyond 3C and Boston has too many bodies in the bottom 6 already. Foegele and Holloway would be much more appealing since they could make it into the top 6.

Might make them a little cap strapped for it to work but the value is there. Anderson trade is dependent on if the Oilers make the cup/win it. If Skinner gets them within 1 or 2 games, they probably don't make the trade. Bruins accept, Devils certainly do not.

Will Philly really trade Couturier away for nothing? We're gonna have to throw SOMETHING in to make that happen, it would be easier for then to just buy him out. 5 mil for Monahan, agree with Heinen over Olafsson.

Thread: Bruins Offseason

I'm sure people will like the Necas trade value wise but we can't give up a 1st again. Make it a 2nd. And he's not getting a massive payment to be our 1C when he couldn't even play 3C on a team with better forwards than us. Short bridge deal and trial him at C. If he can win faceoffs, maybe at some point in the future.

Thread: Bruins next Year

If you're going to sign Max Domi, at least have the balls to put him on a line with Marchand. All depth and no bang up top, this isn't the formula to do anything different. All good signings, though I think Joshua gets more, there's just too many of them. Thank you for remembering Poitras exists.

Trades are pipe dreams.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu. at 1:41 p.m.

Thread: Long term plan

Thoughts going top of the lineup down:
Monahan is a big risk, I'd give him a 1 year incentive based deal and be ready to extend mid-season if need be.
Toffoli for that price and term is worth it, I just think we'd get outbid.
You have Geekie in Mr. Poitras' slot.
Berggren isn't my first choice in a trade from DET but the value of the trade is there and he's not a bad F prospect. It's all moot though because why would Lindholm waive his full NTC?
If we're going to pay for Zadorov, and it's an overpay, I want him paired with Carlo and Lohrei with McAvoy.
Get Shane Ghostisbere of this team immediately, his point production is an illusion.
Swayman gets more.

All in all, a very fun idea and I'd enjoy watching this team.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu. at 1:28 p.m.

Thread: Goaltending

In no conceivable world is Swayman moved for less than two valuable assets, meaning high 1st round pick, young roster player, or top prospect. Yes goalies are undervalued but he would literally be the best goalie traded in the last 25 years. The next closest was Schneider and he got a top 10 pick in what was considered a stacked draft. Schneider was older, had never played more than 33 games in a season, and didn't have the playoff numbers Swayman has. The trade isn't achievable for LA unless they give up Byfield.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu. at 1:21 p.m.

Thread: Bruins 24-25

Monahan is prooobably gonna get paid more than that. 4.5ish million I'm guessing on an upgraded prove it deal. I'd love to resign Heinen and he's definitely earned a pay bump but we have too many guys going out for the bottom 6 to warrant paying a 4LW 2mil+.

And in effect you're trading Ullmark for McNabb... doesn't really seem like it's worth it. You want draft capital or a young asset to come away with if you're moving on from Ully

Forum: Armchair-GMThu. at 1:14 p.m.

Thread: Boston

Ian Cole has been an every day defenseman on every team he's played for, I doubt he'll take a contract to be a 7th D. Necas won't resign for that kind of money in Carolina because he's unproven and not worth center money. He's a 5-6m bridge deal guy. This team is better but not by much.

More like the queef Era. But deal, that's a great Ullmark package and we'll just flip Schmid elsewhere

I promise I got it, just seemed like a great place for a joke. But in all seriousness, I doubt it works out to slap a bandaid on at 1C, just wastes a year of Pasta and McAvoy's primes.
And as a team that abused the one year at crazy money deal with the Taylor Hall trade, I feel like it could bite us in the end to set a guy up the same way

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>You're forgetting that the Jets have no reason to trade him now, that he is under contract for a full year still, they'll trade him to a team where he wants to extend and that they're looking for a hockey trade not a downgrade at wing to get a mid to late first 2 drafts from now.

Work a deal around Carlo.</div></div>

Now if I've learned anything today, it's that suggesting trading Carlo for a forward will get you egged by people here. Nah, hockey trades don't pop up as often as people would like. I admit WPG probably wants to be blown out of the water with an offer, but I think a trade will yield less than people think.

Carlo for Ehlers straight up would be the only trade that makes sense if that's what you want.

And unfortunately you traded the center we would have wanted to Vegas, so Bruins pass on Couture. Would have liked him 5 years ago

Swayman will make closer to 10 mil than 5. And the fewer former Leafs on our team, the better we'll be.

Thread: Revamped

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Not close for Ehlers.</div></div>

Going rate for a guy like Ehlers is a roster player and a mid round pick (see Toffoli for Sherangovic and a 3rd last offseason). A top prospect (granted, in a terrible Bruins system) and a 1st is more than enough.

I would love to trade for Ehlers if the price is right, and that means not moving a 1st round pick, even if we do recoup one via trade elsewhere. We probably get outbid for that reason.
