Yes, we'd like Carlo, and I'd like Selma Hayak, but let's all be realistic. It might sting a little, but I'd say yes to this offer.

Need to give up a better quality prospect. Rakell is on a great deal for multiple years and hes still young.

I wouldn't. I don't see neither Senyshyn or Clifton being major factors in the league. This would be a big L for Ducks...

Could not disagree with you more tbh

Rakell for a first probably around 28, a 24 YO who hasn’t become a NHL regular and a team with a bottom 5 farm systems maybe best case 5th best prospect is an awful return for Rakell

thats what i was thinking maybe swap in Lauko, he's further away from playing in the nhl but he's one of our top forward prospects after Studnicka and Fredric

I can see your position, and it is eminently reasonable. Nevertheless, I would take this chance, especially if the forward prospect was Lauko as @DaBus suggests. I realize I would be in the minority here.

Just out of curiosity, what do you see in Senyshyn and Clifton that would make you say yes?

Edit: and Lauko

The two forwards are rated solid middle-6 prospects and Clifton is rated an NHL-quality defenseman even if a bottom-pairing guy, and I was impressed with his play when I watched him in the playoffs last year. I am reluctantly coming to the conclusion that we won't be contenders next year, either and it seems to me that we should be looking to build up our developing roster. I think that the earliest we can hope to have a viable, high-quality right side of the defense is in 2021-2022, by which time Rakell will be close to the end of his contract, and that Boston first and our second are what I hope will be excellent RhDs.

As you can tell from my comment about Selma Hayak, I'm a dreamer.

I can understand the logic there, one of the reason I wanted to ask ahah

I think I would rather take a package from another team though as I’m sure you can tell I’m not very high on any of Boston’s prospects not named Studnicka, I don’t think we match up with them we’ll need wise

Give me their first and senyshen for backes and call it a day ??

Yes, I agree with you that we could probably get quite a bit more from Carolina, for example, or even Pittsburgh. Still, you know how much I would hate to lose Rakell.

I agree that this package isn’t enough, and that a prospect better than Senyshyn would be needed, but Carlo is just...c’mon.

The thing about Boston’s farm system is there’s basically two guys that stand out as super high end potential in Vaakainanen and studnicka, but then there are a bunch of guys that are NHL quality players with one problem....they belong to boston, and boston is freaking good.

Zboril, Lauzon, Vaakainanen, Senyshyn (I hate him but he’s been okay), Frederic, Cehlarik, and perhaps some others would all be NHLers for other teams. Many of them have played some in the NHL, and looked pretty good.

I’m not the only person that thinks Boston has a bottom 5 farm system, there are plenty of ranking that have them bottom 3, two that come to mind off the bat are the athletics most recent two rankings (pronman and miller if I’m remembering the writers correctly)

The matter of me being only high on Studnicka is an opinion thing that we clearly disagree on and so be it, I respect your opinion and you’re more familiar with them than I,

Boston is good, top 3 in the league easily, that has nothing to do with their prospect pool though

Uhhhhh ya it does. If a team is good, first off it has a dramatic effect on the prospect pool as the team is drafting late, if they aren’t trading away their picks. Second, it effects who is in the prospect pool because if a team sucks, they’re not as many people blocking prospects. Look at JFK, bruins second rounder that i think played 30 games last year, and looked pretty good! But the bruins were a cup contender so they went out and got Coyle, and now JFK has to try to play ahead of Coyle, krejci, and Bergeron? That’s a bit tougher than cracking into the lineup than it would be on a team like the ducks, don’t you think? Similarly, the bruins have a super deep blue line. Guys have gotten called up due to injury, and looked really good. Lauzon and Vaakainanen have looked great in call ups, but are they playing in front of krug, chara, or grzelcyk? Hell no. Those guys are high end established NHLers. If those guys were owned by maybe 20 other franchises, they’re in the NHL right now.

I’m down on a lot of the bruins farm system too, although i think i’ve read a couple of the rankings you have, and, frankly, they’re absolute trash. Some guy just going off point totals on hockeydb. Making a ranking system is pretty tough because it really takes one person that has seen all 30 teams prospects play a lot, and there’s only a few guys on the planet that can say that. The bruins lack a lot of high end talent (although you should add Vaakainanen to your list, he’s right there with studnicka), but they have a lot of quality guys that are NHL ready, albeit probably without the highest of ceilings.

I just wanna make a point that Carlo is basically a younger Josh Manson. Manson CF% 47.5, Carlo 45.5. Dzone starts are virtually even for both. On ice GF/60 are even at 2.6.

You need to take your homer glasses off and stop over valuing everyone in the bruins system, you do it in almost every thread, even other bruins fans call you out for it

The quality of an NHL roster has 0 correlation to the prospects currently in the prospect pool

It has correlation on who goes into it but not those currently in it, Boston has a bottom 5 farm system it’s common knowledge

Not arguing further it won’t go anywhere
