Fastly coming to conclusion that it may be tough to keep Mc Donough and Sergachev .. Sergy has been 3LD because of Hedmen/McDonough and Hedmen is PP1D .. BUT wpuld rather keep Serg and resign Bogo/Scheen for cheap again.. plus with Shatty leaving ( breaks my heart as he HUGE reason we won Cup) we lose am offensive D ..
McDonough is still great .. not too many stay at home D this good in NHL. His contract is still good value. BOSTON defense is in shambles particularly LD .. tough trade for both teams and helps Tampa cap situation.. For Bruins would rather have McDonough cheaper than Larsson
Actually don't think it a bad contract.. 6.75M AAV for next 6 years.. he 30 and stay at home D who eats minutes and is the "Defense whisperer" .. makes whoever he plays with better and is great fit with young D . . was Ranger Captain and Tampa Asst Captain .. compared to some other D contracts .. this actually value to me as dont see much decline in his game when 33-35
First, the Bruins aren't helping Tampa and the opposite isn't happening either.
I wouldn't even do Carlo straight up for McDonagh.
McDonagh is fine right now but he'll soon regress and his contract will be a problem for any team. If there's a team that needs to add a pick, it's TBL.
31, 6x$6.75M and NTC, yikes.
Typical delusional Bruins fans .. Carlo regressed this year and is about level as Cernek .. With Chara now a 3rd line pylon there is nothing there defesnively or leadership.. I am also Bruins fan as from Southie so watch and follow team closely..
