That Krug deal is terrible for BOS

IF the bruins trade Krug (which they shouldnt) it will be for a top 6 forward, not a prospect

Maybe change it to a 2nd round pick but you're getting a 20 year old right winger who would provide excellent size (6'6") and speed to the 2nd line. He was also drafted 9th overall in 2017. It's definitely a risk but I think in there's a big reward.

For Krug, I don't see the Bruins being able to afford him after this year. Getting value for him is worth it at this time in order to resign Carlo and McAvoy.

How are people lazy enough to sign Carlo to a four year deal. Automatically makes this trash

@shmoeman how are you going to resign McAvoy and Carlo? You have 7M in cap space. Krug is also a FA after this season and will likely want to be paid 6.5++. With DeBrusk a RFA after this year, the Bruins likely won't be able to keep Krug. I also wouldn't consider Rasmussen a prospect at this point. He's already played a full season in the NHL. He's 20 years old with size and speed. Something that would work perfectly with Krejci and DeBrusk. I get you'd want someone with more experience but those guys are making 3M++. That wouldn't give you a large enough cushion to resign both Carlo and McAvoy.

so first off, they have more room than that. if they sign carlo and mcavoy two guys are going down. I think it's likely one is Backes, so that frees up close to two million between the two send downs. Even without that, they could bridge both with that 7 million. 2 years each. Maybe move Miller and they could probably grab Carlo long term and bridge McAvoy.

You only have a few years left with this core, you keep Krug unless you get someone who is going to help your lineup more and Rassmussen isnt that

Also dont sign Mcquaid

That's an easy no from Boston on the DET deal.

Krug is an elite offensive d-man on a SC contender. They are not trading him for anything less than a piece that will have a similar impact.

y is mcquaid even being considered here????? BOS has no room, plus clifton took his job.

Carlo term is brutal.
