Matter

It’s wild to me that people think the bruins are just going to give away Linus ullmark.

Minny isn’t the team and they are not trading Gaudreau after extending him to a really good contract.

The other issue with an Ullmark trade…his NTC. He can make himself untradeable. As only about a half dozen teams will be looking for a #1 goalie and him having an NTC covering half the league, he can basically prevent himself from being traded which would force a Swayman trade if they were to trade a goalie. I think Ottawa is most likely landing spot for a Boston goalie, unfortunately, but at least they have a pile of young assets that would be attractive.

Lohrei is not close to being ready.

But this is close to what the offseason will look like.

Might be a bit light on Bertuzzi and Orlov. Doubt they can do both. Might have to choose 1 and Hathaway.

Edmonton declines. No interest in Griz.

CBJ declines we don’t need another middle 6 winger. We have a glutton of them. If you want to trade Swayman, then we are all ears.

None of these are fair value for Boston.
