Created by: Breakaway

Team: 2019-20 Boston Bruins

Initial Creation Date: Apr. 30, 2019

Published: Apr. 30, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Backes Trade at 50%.

Kevan Miller trade for picks because Clifton looks good and Moore will be the 7th defender.

Bjork Makes the team for the 3rd straight year but this time he actually plays well enough to stay with the big club.

Trades

BOS

2020 5th round pick (NYR)

NYR

Backes, David ($3,000,000 retained)
2020 3rd round pick (BOS)
2020 7th round pick (BOS)

Additional Details:

Backes at 50% should be reasonable to a team that needs leadership out of the bottom 6.

THN referenced one thing in common with successful rebuilds is that a lot of the time the teams turning their fortune around have around 10+ draft picks for a number of years. (some of this is the result of trading players at the deadline to acquire extra picks) The Rangers should use this strategy imo.

BOS

2020 4th round pick (EDM)
2021 6th round pick (EDM)

Additional Details:

Similar to the McQuaid last off-season deal only Miller is slightly better imo.

EDM

Miller, Kevan

Additional Details:

The Oilers have needed RHD help for awhile now. Kevan Miller is better than Matt Benning and can play about 4 more minutes per game comfortably (around 19 minutes atoi is good for him)

Buyouts

I'm not sure this is accurate. It could happen but he's got great intangibles and would help a rebuilding team with his strong character.

I think that there are a lot of teams who would take Backes at 3 mil. He’s a great character/leadership guy for a young core to look up to (like NYR)

The Rangers have more than enough "character guys" and could do without another one that only put up 20 points in 70 games.
