1. They probably aren’t (if you take a look at their roster, it sadly just isn’t going to happen).
2. Where’s this top four d you’re talking about?

Even if they want one go get Ghost from Arizona. Probs would cost a 3rd with 50% retention.

He said "top-4", Ghost is a 3rd pairing guy all day.

Ghost? Why the heck would they want ghost?

Again, they’re not going to get anyone. They signed two LD this off season, and unfortunately, that’s very likely the end of it.

Between this trade, and Ghost, zero top four d have been brought up.

I mean Boston be rotating 2 guys who are technically 3rd pair guys in their top 4 already so really does not matter lul.

Ghost-Mcavoy would basically be a budget reincarnation of Krug-Mcavoy.

This post is so horrible that saying, “lul,” wasn’t the worst part of it.

If thats the case Boston could get Chycrun. As if they dont want to save picks and he continues to struggle that could be the backup

Don’t see any scenario where arizona moves chychrun. They should be asking for three firsts +

The rumor was crap, started by a blogger, and discredited very shortly thereafter, so much so that the crappy blogger deleted his tweet. Arizona stinks. Chychrun is awesome.
