Bruins Options

Description
I've put free agent options into the line up. I believe the Bruins need a shutdown left defenseman to play with McAvoy. Cassidy talked about keeping Chara and Carlo as a shutdown pair so that means Krug would be paired with McAvoy or K.Miller. Miller is a better fit with that combination. So McAvoy needs a partner to protect him a little bit.
May need one more depth forward. Stafford may come back but probably not. So Bonino/Boyle are options. Vanek wildcard.
Really believe if Bjork and DeBrusk have good pre-seasons they will be in the line up opening night. Both incredibly talented. Vatrano/Spooner might both go. Spooner 100% gone imo. Vatrano not so much but possible.
JFK at 3 C might happen. Depends on camp/pre-season.

    I wouldnt be against them signing Brendan Smith. When i got to watch some of the rangers games against montreal and ottawa he seemed like the only defender for the rangers that knew what he was doing in his own zone. I can see it working well with McAvoy also because his partner in New York was Brady Skjei

    Why did you buy out guys like Gabrielle, Fitz and Hayes?

    Buyout from a bruins stand point would be a waste. Although he is pretty bad, his contract is very gm friendly. 1 year left at 2.3 mill. Surely a team that needs to hit the cap floor can pick up hayes for like a 6th. Maybe the bruins can just include him in a package like Hayes + a 4th for a 5th. Getting him completely off the books would be ideal

    Hes putting up options that the bruins can have.... Hes not saying the bruins will sign all these players. He signed numerous defensmen that would fit in the 3rd pair with McAvoy...C'mon man

    Buying out Hayes isn't wise. Just take the hit for the year and be done with him. Do you even understand how buyouts work? You buy him out and you prolong his contract for an extra year. Not wise.

    It might happen if Don can't find a trade. Also you could say that buyout is just me getting him out of the NHL roster cause he's not going to get on the Bruins team anymore.
