Solution to aging Bergeron

Team: 2022-23 Boston Bruins
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 14, 2021
Published: Aug. 14, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I don't know if Boston goes forward with Debrusk If he has a bounce back year, he could return, but they have the depth at forward to replace his offence. Barkov seems like the perfect guy to fit in Boston, plays a Bergeron defensive game with maybe more offensive upside. Getting him out of Florida for tax reasons might be tough. Hall had great chemistry with Krejci, he could repeat it with Bergeron and have a monster season.

He's gonna cost at least 11mil probably closer to 11.5. If Tavares got 11 and Panarin got 11.6 he's not gonna take anything less than 11

At least 2M more and you’re already well over with 21 guys.

Bergeron and Ekholm will cost a lot more than that.

Barkov is staying in Miami.

They've played well one *shortened* season in which they faced 7 (only 2 great) opponents. Flames were great in '18-19, look the past two seasons.

I know it’s hard to admit that BOS is only the 4th best team in the division but you’ll get there.

That's what we'll see in the season. But you haven't answered my question. How do you guarantee it's not a one season wonder?

Well, maybe because they haven't a round since 1996 and have had one <.600 season in their 26-season history before last year (which was a 56-game season with 5/7 mediocre opponents). Why would it be different? You need to prove that they can do it again and it wasn't a fluke.

Also, nice way to deflect the question

Lol you think because a team’s distant history they can’t be good when their ost recent history says they are? That’s a new one.

Main point is have two good seasons in a row and win a round, then they will earn respect/praise.

Again, you haven't answered my question. How do you guarantee it's not a one season wonder?

You’ve yet to prove how they aren’t good. Recent history says they’re good. There’s nothing for me to prove.

"History" based on a one season sample size... What's the difference between the 2018-20 Flames and this team?
