      You gave up 7 players to obtain Nash and yet still gave them absolutely nothing of value. Quantity does not equal quality. Piling on a bunch of stiffs does not make a deal look more attractive.

      Gave up Spooner and 2 goalies just to dump Beleskey and got nothing in return. Much to learn still.

      I see you comment a lot but do none of your own? Why is that?

      know what id attempt to do but I don't have the need for anyone else's approval or validation to know if is a good idea or not. I will put moves in the comment section on occasion. Sorry if your feelings were hurt by my critique. But these were really bad no way to sugarcoat it. You can either be angry about the criticism or learn from it the choice is yours. Congratulations on your choice of favorite teams anyway.

      No one is upset about your critique. I like it actually, but it's hard to respect the critique of someone that hasn't put moves together of his own. You say you leave ideas in the comments but that's just piggy backing off the idea of someone else and making adjustments. It's not that you upset me, I'm a level headed person and this is all in fun but most of your comments are not constructive at all.

      Ps. Subban is pretty much worthless at this point and maybe I switch Ryan Spooner and McIntyre with Morrow and C. Miller. Also we don't need the goaltending. Daniel Vladar will be the next goalie for the Bruins after Rask if anyone soon.

      I agree with Bonanca 100%. Gofnut, you're very quick to critique but never post. Let's see that knowledge put to work. I would protect kevan Miller for the expansion draft at this point. His play in this playoffs should solidify it. He's been a minute munching beast. His skating has gotten so much better and allowed him to grow some offensive game. Never thought I'd be saying it, and no i don't think he's a top 4 defenseman, but he's blooming into a solid 3rd pairing #5 who can play up in a pinch. I'd protect that over Adam McQuaid and Colin Miller.

      Rick Nash on a 1 year deal would be easy to swallow. I don't think that package entices NYR, but lets remember they would welcome the cap space to sign Shattenkirk.

      I agree that Kevan Miller's play has been amazing in this series with his ability to drive low from the right point creating some pretty good chances. He really seems to be stepping up with the absence of so many D. I've always wanted to see him play 4th line RW, would be fun to watch him just bulldozer his way in on the forecheck.

      Boston isn't going to trade Fitz. He was a senior this year and had the choice of becoming a UFA and going where he wanted. It would be a slap in the face and could negativity affect future senior UFA's (Bjork) if Boston trade Fitz after he had forgone being a UFA to see what other options are out there.

      I was thinking that too, especially being a guy from the area and all his connections, would really hurt Sweeney's rep. This is the main reason why I want the Bruins to deviate from picking as many Americans in the next draft, would like to see a European taken with the first pick.

      Boston should take the BPA at every pick. They can't really worry about nationality.

      Obviously they should take the best player available but when it comes down to it, their last draft had 0 Canadians and 2 europeans. I'm pretty much just saying that I dont want it to become a common trend, especially with what I see as a weaker American draft class this year.

      Now I get it. But remember the year before that they took 3 Euros, 5 Canadians, and 2 Americans. Just how it works out sometimes. I don't think the Bruins going USA will be a common trend. It's just how they drafted last year.
