Quoting: BreKel
You gave up too much McNabb (this guy is a bottom pair defenseman). And not even close to enough for Murray/Anderson.
LOL. That's funny. You give them Beleskey (Negative value) Cehlarik (just enough value to get the scale back to zero) And Czarnik (no value there) and it's somehow paying too much for a top 6 Defenseman.
Somehow the Murray trade is worse in the Bruins favor. Murray > Spooner by quite a large margin. Josh Anderson is also better than Miller in my view.
These are rip-off type trades with the other teams. Zero chance we can get rid of Beleskey right now even adding Cehlarik and the top baller named Czarnik lol. That's not even enough to dump him without getting anything back in return, but we get exactly what we need in a #6 LHD.
For some reason we're starting a collection of fringe NHLer's. Agostino, Schaller, Czarnik and then 4th line guys like Blidh and Kurally. Then add in guys regressing in value like Beleskey and Vatrano as well as all the Kids. I like the idea of a 3 for 1 type deal to move some of this dead weight, but I'd include some better players and some picks and shoot for someone better. Maybe keep Murray alone in a deal, but offer something like a 2nd rounder 2018 Cehlarik, Schaller and an obscure prospect to see if they're ready to move on from Murray. If they can re-sign Johnson, there's almost no chance Murray gets to be in the top 4 for the duration of the contract, but if they lose Johnson I think they wouldn't move Murray. If you elaborated on this deal and drop Josh Anderson, there could be a match to be made.
